Knitting Update


Every December I participate in a knitting project called Project Peace led Christina Campbell. In November, she posts a pattern available for purchase in Ravelry. It is not a mystery. The materials list is available early. Then the pattern goes live on December 1st. For the first 10 days in December, Christina emails participants  something to ponder/meditate/think about regarding peace, especially peace in one's life. The project culminates on December 21st, international knit for peace day. This years project was a cowl. I have done this since its inception. I find it relaxing and a calming effect during the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. Participants can also add a walk for peace portion to their experience, thus increasing health and building healthy habits. Here is my finished project.


I love the colors and flow. The yarn is marino wool,.I plan to make fingerless mitts to match.
