Spiritual lessons from crocheting
1. Itโs okay to start again
2. Mistakes happen along the way
3. Things donโt always turn out the way we projected
4. We are always given chances to make things right
If was absolutely amazing receiving so much insight whilst I was crocheting.
I decided to cut the thread and start again. Undoing hours and hours spent on making a blanket. In some ways, yes I was a little sadโฆ so much effort and time put into getting it this far. There were many mistakes with the edge line growing outwards instead of straight.
And my mind kept saying, itโs okay to start again ๐ป and so I did. I changed the pattern and started a different crochet stitch. I reflected on the mistakes and knew it was okay and mistakes happen. And I let go of holding on to what was created but no longer fit the purpose (of being a straight blanket ๐
).
As I write this, I see many aspects of crocheting relating to the human journey. We go in one direction, make many mistakes along the way, figure out what we love and donโt love. And there might be a point where we have a choice to change directions as it no longer serves our path. And itโs okay to do thatโฆ itโs okay to let go of hours, days, weeks & years of time we have invested into something, maybe a way of being, maybe a relationship, maybe a career.
It is okay to start again ๐ป
