I couldn't knit yesterday. I anxiously watched the events unfold on the news with idle hands and a broken heart. I kept thinking I should, that I would feel calmer, but I couldn't focus.
Tonight, we spent our virtual knit night trying to make order out of chaos. Taking a long thread and looping it over and through, creating fabric and structure. Taking the events and discussing them over and through, calming fears and soothing frayed nerves.
If it was within my power to knit together our divided country, I would.
