I love to knit. That’s not to say I’m a fast knitter or even that good at it. Mostly I make things that turn out marginally, then I tear them up and start over on something else.

But here’s the funny thing: It’s not the finished product that I find so enjoyable. It’s the process. It’s the gentle rhythm, the pulling of one loop of yarn through another, over and over again.
