blue sky alpacas alpaca & silk in plum - yarn for the somewhat cowl

I sat on the floor, legs crossed, back straight. I tried to meditate the organic way – focusing only on the breath. But after five minutes, I picked up the needles next to me and began to work on the new project I’m knitting.

Mindful knitting as meditation.

Edited to add:
I was just reading ModeKnit and there was a comment that the Summer IK preview is up. (Check out her Bias Corset, perfect for summer.) Ever since I knit this, I’ve been searching for a cute baby pattern. Kate Gilbert’s Pea Pod Baby Set looks like the perfect project!
