Life Lessons that Knitting Teaches Us



Knitting is still trying to teach me...

Time
Life is a journey not a destination, rushing to the end ruins the enjoyment of the process.

Money
Good quality makes for better results. Cheap is not usually better.

Meditation
Garter stitch has a place in every experienced knitters world

Fun
What is fun for me isn't always for someone else. 

Challenge
Knitters search out challenge if they aren't overwhelmed by stress in other areas of their lives. 

Learning
I learn more from my mistakes than I do from my successes.

Patience
It always takes longer to knit than I think it will.

Commitment
See patience.

Check Carefully
I make a lot of math mistakes when I'm not paying attention.

Be Humble
Novice knitters always teach me new things with their questions and fresh approach.
