Who is a Knitter?

How often do you have to knit to be a “knitter”? or how well? Is it the finished products that make a “knitter”? or the intention?
 
I propose that one can be a primitive knitter with only one stitch and qualify as a “knitter” on the grounds that creativity has found a medium for expression, With a descriptive adjective  to honor tradition, one could be a “master knitter” and embody the areas of excellence and knowledge, or a beginning, intuitive knitter. Intention matters. Honoring one’s process matters.
 
I have not heard any rumors of the Fussy Knitters Association issuing citations for fraudulent references by self proclaimed “knitters”.
