Creating every day is easy because it’s a key part of who I am, even if I’m not feeling well.  On the 13^th I felt really sick to stomach. One thought that ran through my mind was that if I had to go to the hospital, how would I let my husband know which knitting projects to bring to me? What would I enjoy working on during my stay?

Thankfully, I had some kind of crazy flu bug; I retreated to what I’m now calling the yarn lounge.  I read watched movies and did a bit of knitting between naps throughout the weekend.  I couldn’t get off the couch and into the glass studio until Monday.   My body was telling me to slow down and rest so that’s just what I did.

Since I’ve been moving between glass and knitting, I’ve decided to change the structure of my blog posts for the 365 Days of Creativity project into three parts:

1. Glass Studio Work
2. Yarn Lounge
3. Creative Spark

Take a look at what’s been happening between the 10^th and the 16^th

Glass Studio Work

I set up some dichroic slabs and dishes.

I fired bases for wall hangings.

Yarn Lounge

I put this new “corgi approved” sweater together.

I made progress on this Faroese Shawl

I continued to  work on this Hitchhiker scarf for my daughter.

I joined a hitchhiker scarf knitting circle and started 2 new scarves.

Creative Spark

Never underestimate the power of a good nap.
