Knitting is Therapy!

Did you know that knitting is considered therapy? I just bought a book called "Never to old to Knit, Beautiful Basics for Baby Boomers". I consider myself a Baby Boomer. It talks about the fact that knitting can relieve stress, help your arthritis and ease your tension. WOW! I am already hooked, but I am so glad to know that I am going to get some health benefits from it too. In the section called "10 Top Reasons to Start Knitting Now", it says, and I quote, "Working with beautiful colors and textures of yarn can be very comforting, and the hand movements involved in knitting have a calming effect".

Let's Knit Ya'll!
