  1. Hi Michelle–love your knitting projects. When my children were growing up I knit everything from mittens to scarves to hats to sweaters and loved every minute of each project. Maybe I will pick this hobby up again as it can be a wonderful stress-reliever. Thanks for sharing.

    • Hi Sylvia,

      I have only started knitting, but I have found it to be a wonderful hobby, it works well for those times when I want sit and think and for those times when I want to sit and let my mind wander aimlessly. It’s also really fun to make things for the people around me I love. A group of us are going to start on a charity knitting project, which I think will be particularly fulfilling as well.

      If you pick it back up, be sure to post some pictures of your projects on your blog so I can see!

      Michele
