"I love it when I see knitters out in the world, knitting. I like to imagine that they’re knitting something for someone: a scarf for their sick friend, maybe, or a blanket for a baby who hasn’t been born.
Whenever I get stuck lately, I’ll make a robot for my son. (Here’s another one.) Just a silly little something. And when I give it to him, I remember that, sure, the gift is in the giving, but the gift is really in the making.
Making something for somebody — is there anything simpler and more likely to get one unstuck?"

Happy Thanksgiving from Canada!
Happy Thanksgiving Jacki-san Jo-Ann & Jim
Now I subscribed to the newsletter from Austin Kleon because I loved the thoughts you shared about making gifts. I too love making something for somebody - friends, my children and grandchildren - but it never occurred to me how much the gift is in the making. I love this idea.
Thanks Jacki for your kind response to my yesterday's comment. I read your answers every day and I'm so grateful you take the time to write them. Thanks again.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you Anonymous/Canada, at least you gave me a country? ;o)
