Making Peace with Making

5/30/2022

As has been echoed over and over these days, humanity feels precarious, a time to cherish being alive. 

My cancer experience and recent events have caused me to crystallize my vision for the remainder of my life. I used to think I had to live into some grand gesture, not just accomplishment, but that I needed to be doing something more than I am to make a living, more than I am to give to others.

Now I have my sights set on this: To cultivate a peaceful life and radiate peace.

Part of making peace is definitely making through my craft, and after a several month knitting hiatus and healing post cancer treatment, I have a few objects to share. 

1) Cedar Brook Pullover by Tamy Gore - Ella Rae DK Superwash Merino wool used
2) Inclinations Shawl by Andrea Mowry - Self-striping 50/50 wool/acrylic blend, DK Skeinz wool. I intend to make a larger and more colorful one with many different stripes.

3) Cozy Comfort Throw by A Homespun House - Bio Balance yarn, 50/50 cotton/wool with colorful strand of Wensleydale Gems wool. Plan to change colors to use scraps as I go once these colors are gone.
4)  Spring Shoots Tam  by Kate Davies ​

You have been working on very interesting patterns!
I like the two patterns raising funds for Ukraine a great deal. I had not come across them earlier.

Your peace focus sounds just right.
keep well
