Great piece. I just started crocheting. Is that allowed at Knit Night? But seriously, Any historical research into earlier centuries (I have a novel set in 1860) quickly shows us that hand work, like knitting and quilting has always bonded women together. I am the least crafty person on the planet and yet I find it deeply satisfying! So interesting.
…small things. Knit Night became Sit&Stitch since the important part was making something, not what or how. The important part over the centuries all around the world has been the gathering and making, from mending to creating big new things and so much in-between.

Yes! Crochet definitely counts! I do that, too - it’s the most portable since I only make
Lovely piece - makes me want to pick up some yarn or fabric or something! I am an artsy/fartsy/crafty type and need to do it more :)
These simple words say so much, and beautifully. Once again, Kate. xF
My local favorite book store offers cross stitching night. I'm thinking of going!
Thank you for the shout out!! Those knit nights sound so fun :)
Lovely Kate. Thank you. We aren't here in winter but I do love the quiet of fall that brings a contemplative nature.
I want that “rage” cross-stitch on a t-shirt or a mug!
