Thanksgiving 7 - Knitting
Thanksgiving 7- I am thankful for knitting. I love the predictability of it, the ability to choose color, texture, design and produce something with reasonable reliability which at least remotely resembles the intended result. When I am overstimulated, overtired, anxious, and so much in life is out of my control, I can pick up my needles and knit, purl, knit, purl and lose my anxiety in the rythm of it. I am thankful for having a portable way of calming myself which actually produces objects of beauty and warmth. I am thankful for knitting.

I do understand the relaxation of knitting. Diane found this too. One can lose oneself in knitting. And what wonderful things one can produce while calming oneself.
