I have enjoyed visiting several Knitting Blogs ever since I started blogging on November 28, 2009. Now after 31 days of writing and blogging, I have strong desires to think and wonder about knitting and its implications in writing…I brain-stormed WORDS that could describing Writing and Knitting, now I am ready to share my insights with you:
Knitting Is: Writing Is:
weaving wording
dreaming developing
sharing succeeding
designing discussing
counting connecting
making producing
measuring organizing
wishing hoping
contributing teaching
pleasing entertaining
listening imagining
hooping growing
giving doing
painting programing
changing learning
caring composing
loving preparing
communicating orchestrating
… …

Do you have any words in mind to make it continue? Help me keep the sequences on knitting and writing going to infinity!
Knitting and writing are similar in many ways, if you knit, you write also, if you write, you knit in WORDS instead of in WOOLS.
Wow, Dear friends, Happy Knitting! Happy Writing!

hello Ji……
knitting is expressing , art, watching the face of the recipient getting a gift of hard worked tapestry…..
writing is, fruitful, academic, expression, personal….
is that enough, excellent write as always friend….
Dear Gentle man:
You are amazing when doing these activities, an expect, know things much better than me:)
Keep teaching me, keep making me smile!
Since I don’t knit (nor write much) this would be a tough one for me 😉
No problem, your comment is the entry that cheers jingle up:)
Thank you for the magical touch!
🙂

They are very similarly related. Especially when crafting a story. It is very much like weaving an intricate piece of art. 🙂
You are right, I could not tell the differences when thinking about both, knitting is working on Wools, writing is working
on WORDS, but both activities are abstract thinking related…
It is such a surprise to have you over, it is snowing outside,
wishing you a safe ride while traveling 🙂
What a great post! I’m stopping by from MBC! Thanks for your comment!
Welcome,
I appreciate your kind remarks.
‘purl’ I love the sound of that word, and the fact it can create not only a lovely sound, but a thing of warmth.

Glad you are here,
Being positive has become your nature:)
This is cool!
Thanks a lot.
Expressing, coupling, being. I don’t know the first thing when it comes to knitting, but I imagine it is much like writing where you put a piece of your soul into everything you create. In a sense it is a part of you.
I agree, you are totally in it when you knit or write for the ones you love…
Very accurate descriptions from you, Amy!
Glad that you are here.:)
I couldn’t think of anything for a while, but I’ve come up with “Knitting is blocking, writing is publishing.” Or maybe writing is editing. Kind of the final steps before someone else sees the work of art.
Thank you for the unique response.
Would you mind explain what does blocking mean to us?
you mentioned something very important, writing can be revised as many times as possible, but knitting almost done once for all, agree?
Thank you for the participation:):)
have a great evening, Beth!
Blocking is steaming or washing/drying the project to a finished size. You are right about knitting being done once for all. With blocking, it’s possible to make things a little different but not much. For example, I just made a scarf for my mom. By blocking it, I was able to stretch the scarf to make it a little longer.
Thank you for the detailed explanations about blocking on knitting, Beth, your example is perfect to make me fully comprehend the meanings in the WORD of “blocking”…
wow, you are actually outstanding writer in addition to your excellence in knitting, Jingle is very blessed to have a friend such as you,
please feel free to come and go,
comment when you think it is appropriate.
Happy New Year!
Beth Dear!
Hi Jingle!
I like the comparison between knitting and writing. I agree with you that in knitting, you use wools, or yarn. In writing, you knit in words. But both of them are creating works of art. Both of them are about letting out something from within you so that others may enjoy them too.

How cute you look to come in and show your agreement with me
it makes Jingle jump for JOY:)!
Both knitting and writing allow us share part of us with our friends, loved ones, and those we care for sure.
Again, glad to have you in with me:).
Same here. It’s always a pleasure to be connected to a fellow blogger 🙂
Thanks, have a super GOOD one for the day!
