Reflection
Knitting is… really addictive…… I could do this all day. I think I’ll knit a hundred pairs of socks when I retire. Similar to needle felting, the process itself is repetitive and therapeutic, but also requires attention (and a bit of math) to do properly. I have been into exploring different types of knitting patterns so far, so next time I will try knitting actual objects and mixing my own patterns into them.
