Doctor KnitterAt age 40 I "opted out" and took up knitting to fill the hours
waiting for my children at their myriad activities. The busying of my
hands allows my mind to wander freely - a pleasant and unanticipated
paradox well known to knitters but previously unexplored in my life.
This deeply physical habit/addiction enables me to attend to my children
(unlike reading a book), talk with other parents (or pretend to ignore
them when desirable), and regain the importance of a tactile daily
experience...lost once my babies preferred running to sitting on my lap.
This blog is designed to share, not only knitting patterns/ideas, but
share the experience of bringing back grace and integrity to the modern
raising of children in an urban environment.
