An interesting observation, is the sharing of material. After going to Nazareth house and having clothes donated as well as spinning finer yarns myself there has been a almost co marauders of colour... A bartering of trade you red for blue... And as you listen to the starry eyed ideas you get as excited to see each other's product. There is no competion factor just a genuiness to share and care.

Experience
I have been really experiencing the knitting this time around. The stitches make sense the construction language of knitting or pearl and just the muscle memory has allowed me to understand knitting on a deeper level. I chose to break found pieces and knot them together for a number of symbolic reasons however physically knitting with the textures Allow me to visually as well as tactility experience a changing shift every so often as my yarn changes from rough to delicate, frayed to smooth. It is as if I can change the settings of my knitting which keeps it exciting as my mind engages while I knit to stay within the process because the finer areas tend to simply come apart as you knit and reknit.
