Now, let us all take a deep breath and forge on into the future; knitting at the ready.

Properly practiced, knitting soothes the troubled spirit, and it doesn't hurt the untroubled spirit either.

For people allergic to wool, one's heart can only bleed.

Knit on with confidence and hope through all crises.

People don't choose their careers; they are engulfed by them.

The thirst of desire is never filled, nor fully satisfied.
