And so I knitted this one in wire…….

Knitting angel dolls in wire is a slow, contemplative, meditative act.
Working with wire can be really hard on your tendons, so there is a an odd energy in making healing dolls with it.
It forces you to be VERY mindful! So, that’s a good thing…….
blessings!
hugs all round,

thanks so much, Jill :)
You have to work with a very ‘gentle’ tension to knit with wire, and to do it for short periods of time. Resting your fingers is essential. I find that knitting wire is less stressful for my tendons than crocheting it. But, I still love doing both!
