These two weeks have been my holidays and have been really full on. I have been working and studying and havent had huge amounts of time to relax and catch up with my knitting. Over the two weeks I havent been a part of my knitting group. I have found this really hard as I miss the weekly catch ups and discussions over how we are going. My progress is slow however I have found the time I have spent knitting of benefit. I have found it very relaxing and a nice way to have study break. I have also found time to show my Mother what I have been doing and teaching her the knowledge I have learnt in relation to class lectures and tutorials. She has really enjoyed this as she has been able to see how much I have improved from when she initially taught me how to knit. I have found it really beneficial for myself to be able to give back to her for teaching me. I have also been youtubing some more knitting videos and have found some awesome ones. I really like this music video that shows the extreme side of knitting. The video clip is by the band stereogram.
I have also been working on my framework so that when we go back to class we are able to finish it off ready to present it to the class. I am looking forward to getting back to Dunedin to take part in my knitting group again. I am also looking forward to using knitting as a stress release tool for exams that are coming up. It will be a great way to take time out of our busy schedule to relax and reflect.
