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.

Anxiety and knitting

There are days when I feel anxious. Sometimes the anxiety is about a particular thing or event, on other days it is very non specific anxiety.  One of the ways I know I'm feeling anxious is when I am planning knitting projects, selecting yarns and pulling pattern books from the shelves.  It's a strange thing because if I were to pick up a project in progress and focus on that the anxiety would dissipate rather than build as I plan more and more elaborate projects.

A festival hat

I spent this weekend at Towersey Folk Festival. It was wonderful and I knitted my niece a festival hat.
