Knitting has become very popular in recent years. Knitting threads or yarns are used to create cloths or warm cloths.
The stitches are much the same as the baby blanket design, but the final product is nearly twice as large. You could sell your creations online, as well as in your local clothing and department stores. There are annual conferences, where people learn by attending classes.
Yarns need not be dyed; or they may be dyed one color, or a great variety of colors. You can find circular knitting needles, double point knitting needles and also single pointed knitting needles made of different materials such as steel, wood or bamboo. These usually utilize the basic stockinet stitch, which makes them ideal for beginners.
They'll go quickly, winter scarves are wonderful to wear, and a thick "novelty" style yarn hides any little irregularities in your stitches. The latter is better for knitting, since the yarn is much less likely to tangle.
So, if you want to slow down, and find meaning in your life again, try knitting. But, that's the essence of knitting.
