Knitting At Noon (V) - January 6 - 17
$20.00
Knitting every day is good for you.
Studies show that knitting triggers the release of serotonin, reduces anxiety, and improves your mood. Other studies show that knitting and crocheting can lower heart rate and blood pressure and reduce harmful blood levels of the stress hormone cortisol.
So for those of you who have lost your knitting mojo or just got busy with other things, we want to encourage you to get back at it.
Sign up for Knitting at Noon today and we will send you the cowl pattern that we included in our Box of Light - easy, meditative knitting. You can use yarn you already have or get a Koigu Pencil Box. (The yarn we used for the Box of Light is no longer available for purchase.) We will also send you the Zoom link so that you can tune in every weekday January 6 - 17 at noon Central time for 30 minutes of knitting together.
We anticipate that not everyone will be able to tune in every day. Drop in when you can. Sessions will be recorded, in case you feel the need to review something you missed. We will have some tips and tricks for the project and prize giveaways, but the real benefit of course is the "excuse" to knit a little every day.
If you are looking to put some "happy" in the new year, I hope you will join us!
NOTE: If you received a Box of Light this year, the Knitting at Noon experience is included. No need to sign up. We've already added you to our list.
