Making knots with coloured wollen threads is a current past time of mine. Knot-making helps me de-stress. Infact, Knot-making is also a form of meditation as it gets us to focus on getting the knot right- hence we do not think of any problem or issue while doing the act. This helps us to clear the mind.
Knot-making activities are plenty – knot making for making a band, for making fancy bag, for dresses, for wollen caps and curtains.
I choose to learn knot-making creating small woolen bands that can be tied around the waist. I am required to tie different coloured wollen threads on the toe and connect it to all my 10 fingers in my hand. This helped me in working at hand, leg and eye co-ordination – this proved to be a simple but effective exercise.
I make these threads and gift it to people who matter the most to me – hence I now am able to gift personalized things to my loved ones.
This is a wonderful and engaging past-time. I would definitely recommend to everyone, who wants to have an inexpensive hobby.
