Knitting and other creations.

I started my blog in 2011, which was to be my year of knitting. I sucessfully knitted all of the gifts that I gave.
I learnt to knit at my Godmother's knee and have always taken it for granted.

2011 has drawn to a close but my blogging will continue, not just knitting but other creations too.

When I knit...

When I knit, I get lost in a world of creativity.  The needles become a part of me, an extension of my hands and as they weave the wool and create, my mind is focused.  It is focused on the creative process and nothing else can get in.  For a little while it is just me and my needles, purling, kniting, casting on and off and weaving a magic prayer which will be worn by it's recipient.  The recipient may not realise that the item they wear is a prayer, but each stitch, each loop of yarn is a prayer for them, a prayer of blessing and love.
