I have come out in the open with my "Fiber Fetish" and guess what? I walked right into a crowd! (grin) All of the craftier arts seem to be more popular than ever, especially things to do with fiber.
Knitting, crocheting, quilting, spinning and even tatting and lace making are part of a huge profitable industry. I know I love it and I love doing it with friends. What a great community rediscovered... and now it includes men too! How cool is THAT!?! I have also discovered that I have a passion for knitting lace... mmmmm. The only problem with this is that lace shawls aren't usually very quick projects (sigh)... oh well, that will not deter me, I just have several going at once of all levels of difficulty.
From the Rev. Dr in me comes the fact that this kind of "work" taps into the less analytical, more creative parts of our brains. This , I believe, is where higher spiritual thought occurs and as a result of this explosion of creative activity, a higher level of spiritual awareness is knitting us all together! What a beautiful way to seek enlightenment!
