We spend so much of our time and energy rushing around to make money to buy stuff we think we need. We tend to want what others have and appear to have forgotten that we can often create what we need ourselves. We seem to have forgotten that as humans the need to create is strong. When we do not have the opportunity to create we become disatisfied, hungry for something, who knows what for. So we rush some more, in ever decreasing circles, looking for that elusive something. We think we find it in stuff others have and we pass our cash in exchange, always looking to buy the next thing that might satisfy.
Knitting is a slow process, it’s not something you do in a rush. Even with fat needles and fat yarn it still takes time, and in that time the busy-ness leaves, life slows down and the act of creating fabric takes on a meditative flow.
