Knit again! April 4, 2007
Yes, my once a year knitting frenzy is back. I’ve been trying to graduate from the hats and scarves of last winter and have been steadily working on a sweater. The end is in sight! But with spring in the air I may not be able to wear it until next year. Boo. I’m promising myself right here and now to finish it in the next two weeks!
Why I like knitting:
- I am a very tactile person – love the feel of the yarn running through my fingers
- It is a good relaxer – the calming clicking rhythm of the needles – which I need after a long day at work
- It is a catalyst for meditation and creative thinking
- It makes me feel that I’m actually being productive with my down time instead of my usual descent into a vegetative state
April 23, 2007 Update: Here’s the finished product! Unfortunately the fit is not very flattering on me, so I am going to give it to my friend.

Here is a picture of all the pottery that I made. I just got them back, glazed and fired, not too long ago.
