I dreamt I was picking up stitches

I don't know but sometimes when I have a hard time getting to sleep or back to sleep, I visualize myself knitting. Just thinking about knitting seems to take that tension out of me, and let's me sort of sink into a comfortable spot easier.

Last night I dreamt I was picking up stitches. So I think it means I need to pick this kiddo cardigan back up and finish it off. It's St. Patrick's Day, the sweater is green. I think it's meant to be.


I'm sorry the posting and visiting has been sparse lately, but there has been a lot going on as usual, but I'm also prepping for a Spring Break vacation, and I just realized it means I'm leaving next week. More on that and some other fun stuff soon ... till then, knit strong.

    I don't think I've ever had a knitting dream - odd because I am always knitting.

    Enjoy your vacation.

    I completely understand, I always try and picture myself in a beautiful garden overlooking the Amalfi coast. I shall try knitting for a change next time. CJ xx

    I'll try that trick the next time I can't go back to sleep. Sometimes I think of jumping sheep. Have a fabulous time on your spring holiday.

    I do the same thing! I knit in my brain and then I drop off to sleep counting stitches. Spring break sounds wonderful. Yay for early Easters!

    What a great idea--think about knitting when you can't sleep. I have never tried that but you can be sure I will!

    I hope your vacation is to some place beautiful, fun and exotic. I can't wait to hear all about it!

    I'm going to have to give that a try. Usually I get up and actually knit. Maybe just pretending will get me back to sleep.

    I do this too, think or imagine knitting when I can't sleep! It works. :)
