getting help when you need it.......

 is possibly the hardest thing to do .

Or even just saying to yourself that I need help. I have fallen into a deep hole full of low moods, anxiety by the bucket load, lack of restful sleep, negative thoughts and the awful thoughts of leaving everyone and everything behind. 

I have sought that help and am awaiting the response of better medication, talking therapy and anything else that they can recommend. 

As you might be able to guess, not a lot of creative thinking or doing has been present in my life for the last few weeks. I have started to knit c2c (corner to corner) squares for wash cloths or dish cloths. The yarn I have been using is from a discontinued Lion Brand, Terryspun which I purchased from woolwarehouse.co.uk. It's made from microfiber and is very soft. So much so, that my 5 year old nephew has decided that he wanted them sewn together to make a snuggle blanket. I crocheted the 6 pieces I had managed to create together and he has been sleeping with it ever since. 

I am currently half way through with another square. I cast on 3 stitches and then increase to 50 sts, then do decreases until I have 3 sts left then bind off and weave in ends.

It's a nice easy project that makes me feel productive and I have a functional piece after I have finished. Win-win situation.


Until next time, stay creative x
