Feeding My Knitty Passions

[marivee]

I'm a firm believer in doing whatever makes you happy so long as it doesn’t involve hurting people, animals or Mother Nature (just sayin’).

My passions have always involved textile crafts such as embroidery, quilting, crochet and knitting.  I also have a passion for books, reading them and now, of course, writing them.  The focus for this post

I knitted a baby blanket for my first child. I bought needles and books and taught myself the basics. Now the needles are in a storage tub.

I crocheted many, many things . . . even a queen sized blanket for my sister-in-law. Now the crochet hooks are also in the storage tub. It's not that I don't love yarn work, but that I don't have time (at least that's what I tell myself so I can feel better).

Seeing those gloves makes me want some. I may have to make a trip to the storage shed and dig through the tub (my yarn is there too). *sigh* I miss it.

Beautiful color for the sweater, by the way! =D

Thank you! I'm loving the color, too. I actually didn't do much knitting until last Christmas rolled around. You know how it goes, with work, family and writing, there isn't any time for anything else. But I realized that knitting actually helped me think (about my WIP) AND it helped me relax.

So break open that tub and join me! :)
