- I DON'T KNIT! To be honest my fingers don't knit, crochet, draw or sew! So you could have knocked me over with a feather when the gentle nudging of the Holy Spirit impressed upon my soul the necessity for a Prayer Knitting Ministry in my church! For 3 months I watched dvd's and read books on knitting. I was in uncharted waters! Knitting had it's own terminology. Dare I decode words like: Casting On, Binding Off, Yarn Over, Decrease, Garter Stitch, Increase and Pass Slipped Stitch Over! Try saying "Pass Slipped Stitch Over" three times fast! My yarn shop experience was between Dorothy entering Oz and falling down the rabbit hole from Alice in Wonderland. I felt like a small child walking into an Old Fashioned Candy store for the first time! Yarns resembled fluffy cotton candy and creamy taffy! So many of the yarns looked like edible treats and they were calorie free! A dear friend at church, through God's intervention, taught me how to knit! As of December 2009, the Prayer knitting ministry has given over 175 shawls, scarves, blankets and prayer bears! GO TO MY MAY BLOG TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE PRAYER SHAWL MINISTRY OR JUST E-MAIL ME ♥
