For us folks here in Canada, today is the time of year when we celebrate Thanksgiving. I know it’s not celebrated around the world, but I think it’s one of the more important holidays, and we should all practice being thankful just because. Yesterday I celebrated the harvest (and the original reason for this holiday) with a turkey dinner with all the fixings with some great friends.
Today, I’m doing a blog post of 10 things I’m thankful for in knitting …
- That many, many, years ago, somebody decided to take 2 sticks and some yarn and develop the craft we call knitting.
- That not so many years ago, I decided to learn said craft!
- That I live in a time and place where I can knit freely, and with such amazing materials.
- That cashmere, silk, qiviut, possum, camel, and merino are just a few minutes walk away in as many colors as I can imagine.
- The internet!
- Ravelry, Pinterest, Knitty, and all the other amazing websites that inspire and teach – and this one too! 😉
- Fall color inspiration.
- Knitting groups and shows.
- Books!
- Each and every one of you that reads not only this blog, but others, and gives us reason to continue blogging!
I could of course continue to list many, many, more things I’m thankful for, but neither is there space or time … well, there’s probably space, but definitely not time. I hope that you have many reasons to be thankful – not just about knitting, but for everything in your life. Thank you all for your continued support and I look forward to repeating this post (well, one similar anyways) for many years to come!
