Ever lost your knitting mojo? Get stuck on a craft project because you feel like you\u2019re not sure why you started it in the first place? In this class, we will unplug from technology for a few hours and enjoy one of the rare pleasures in busy modern life: a blank page, a pen, and the nurturing of your creative self. Everyone has the capacity for creativity whether you\u2019re a busy parent, a scientist, or already working in a creative field. You may not think creativity plays much into your practices as a knitter, but it does! And we\u2019ll investigate how. We will discuss ways to incorporate journaling, personal essay, and other writing techniques into a daily practice to unlock and unblock creativity. We\u2019ll also discuss things that get in the way of creative flow and how we can help heal our minds through the intersection of writing and craft.<\/p>\n
