Hand Knitted Baby Blanket
Knitted with love by Helen£25.00
My Grandma taught me how to knit as a child, a skill left untouched until lockdown 2020. A friend gave me a hand knitted snood that she had made during the first lockdown. I was thrilled to have a present so personal and it got me thinking”I could do that” I took up knitting again after 40 odd years of not picking up a needle.
After a few months of cursing, undoing, starting again, I made myself a scarf that was actually decent. I started to read, watch and learn more about knitting and my skill levels increased. I gifted my creations and saw the pleasure that my craft brought to the recipients.
I now knit to stay sane, after a busy day at work, knitting is the perfect way for my mind to unwind while my hands create.
