One Stitch at a Time

Location

Slip, Slip, Knit

Purl 2, Knit 1

(C6F, Knit 2) repeat 2x

     Ball of yarn slowly shrinks

 

The yarn moves silently across the needles

an ancient dance controlled by my hands

my hands controlled by my brain

my brain controlled by the pattern

 

Slowly, so slowly

the yarn becomes something

  The hands that usually shake are steady

   The mind that usually races is still

 

The world is quiet,

waiting to see what this creation of mine will me

And I am happy
