Firefly Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Adorable! I enjoyed looking at your other projects, too. Nice work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertDweller Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Wow! How cute. You did a great job. I love to work on crafts, but as I've gotten older, I can't seem to find the patience to sit down and stay with something long enough. I use to sit and crochet for hours many years ago. Maybe sometime I'll have to try again. Seeing that makes me want to start something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I talk to the trees Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 You're not alone! I was up until 1:30 last night working on a shawl. I have found that it's pointless to even try to sleep when I'm all wound up and stressed. Focusing on something like knitting for an hour or two always helps. Hey! Maybe we should start a "midnight knitters" social group!;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinder Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 I understand! I can't even begin to say how many dishcloths I have made recently beause knitting also helps me to relax. Me, too! Dh has actually asked me to slow down on this because we ran out of room in the dishtowel drawer. :tongue_smilie: Hey! Maybe we should start a "midnight knitters" social group!;) I'm in! I was up past midnight last night working on a scarf for a charity project. Didn't finish . . . maybe that's why I couldn't sleep. :D Cinder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mothersweets Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 The dolly is so sweet! Really nice work on everything else, too! I'm the same way - knitting helps me to unwind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been having trouble sleeping as well lately, stress I'm sure, and I have many projects half started. I will try knitting next time this happens, probably tonight.:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrid Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 LOVELY dolly! I left a comment--- "Astridrobi" on Ravelry, but I use the same avatar everywhere so it's easy to tell who I am! :-) I'm a stress-knitter too. I lay in bed tossing and turning and thinking, "What a waste. I could be up getting a TON of knitting done!" Yawn, astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommy22alyns Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 Yes! Knitting is so relaxing for me. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runamuk Posted September 5, 2010 Share Posted September 5, 2010 I loved looking at your projects. Thank you for sharing. :) Knitting helps me relax, too. I've started knitting washcloths for the kids for Christmas already and it helps me unwind after everyone goes to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamee Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 I need to start knitting again, especially the projects I want done by the holidays. I'm primarily a hat knitter. Cute doll! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
