Changing Things Up

As much as I love to draw and paint with watercolors, sometimes I feel like I'm missing something.  I end up needing to do something else creatively.  Lately, I decided to pick up some knitting needles again.

I made two chain chomp hats, one for my husband and one for my son.

My daughter was feeling left out and requested a Hello Kitty hat.  I couldn't find a pattern that I liked, so I decided to so something I had never done with knitting before - just wing it!

And now I've decided to wing making a scarf to match my son's hat.

This little switch (and working on Index-Card-A-Day) reminded me how important it is for me to change things up every once in a while.  It brought about inspiration at a time when things were starting to feel stale and stuck.
