What is it that stops us from knitting our wonderful baby knitting patterns?

There are some days I am certain two or three hours have gone missing. There just isn’t enough time! On some days it seems like not enough time for anything. No fun or play just work and clean and worry. I am sure you recognize in this world there is plenty to worry about, but I think that is the very reason we need to make time for play too.

Sometimes, it is the place to knit. Some people feel that they need a special place. That lovely rocking chair or a special craft room, or me, I love sitting on my deck in the evening, listening to the sounds of nature and knitting all my baby knitting patterns. But if I can’t get to my deck, maybe it is raining, should that mean that I don’t knit that day.

 

                                                   

Sometimes, we have a schedule to keep, house to clean, meals to cook, children to bathe, an perhaps a job to work. Well some of us are so regimented that we will not allow ourselves the “luxury” of some “me” time. Rubbish! We need it!

If we have schedules to keep, why not “schedule” your time to include some knitting?

I guarantee you will never regret it. You will feel better, be happier and more tolerant of the world around you.

The point of this post is to encourage all of us, myself included not to forget the importance of allowing ourselves some relaxation time. To allow ourselves the opportunity to soul search or meditate or simply think of nothing. But to have the time to do something we really enjoy doing, in this case, knitting.

Think of the message we are sending our children. I am harried, frantic and grumpy because there isn’t enough time in the day. Or, I am important too, and I am going to make the best use of the time I have, balanced between work and play.

So go ahead and try it. Give yourself permission to enjoy the basic pleasure of knitting our precious baby knitting patterns.
