This has been a very rough year health wise for me. There are still some days when I don’t have the energy to move let alone knit or even just listen to an audiobook book without falling asleep. Yet today I managed to log my last 4 knitting projects for the year, charity hats 6-9 which brought me up to 24 completed projects for 2025. Mostly charity projects.
In January this goal was a stretch for me. I was dealing with my second bout of Pericarditis in less than a year. I am on a new medication that seems to be helping. However, this being said I never heal as fast as I want. The older I get, it also seems to take longer. This go-go girl is not used to living life in the slow lane at all. Don’t get me wrong, I am very happy to be alive and to be able to create things for kids whose families normally could not afford the prices for my work. This beats customers who say that they can get a bespoke hat, scarf or shawl for less money than I pay for my yarn. Then try to get the item for a loss for me. No way in he double toothpicks. From feed back I get from the Flowing Wells School District staff, all the kids and staff are very happy to get my mostly one of a kind hats and scarfs. That makes me so happy. That amount of happiness that I create is better than money.
So without further ado, here are charity hats #6-9-2025.
