Knitting

Knitting is a method for production of textile fabrics by interlacing yarn loops with loops of the same or other yarns. It is used to create many types of garments. Knitting may be done by hand or by machine.

Knitting creates stitches: loops of yarn in a row; they can be either on straight flat needles or in the round on needles with (often times plastic) tubes connected to both ends of the needles. There are usually many active stitches on the knitting needle at one time. Knitted fabric consists of a number of consecutive rows of connected loops that intermesh with the next and previous rows. As each row is formed, each newly created loop is pulled through one or more loops from the prior row and placed on the gaining needle so that the loops from the prior row can be pulled off the other needle without unraveling.

Crochet

How do I start crocheting? Start with the basics. Learning the foundation chain, and how to do a slip knot and chains is the first thing you would need to know. Then get yourself familiar with the basic stitches such as the slip stitch, single crochet stitches, half double crochet stitches, double crochet stitches, and triple/treble crochet stitches.

Reading changes my life all the time...

It's a way for us to see the world differently and to communicate differently, whilst also taking us away to "another" world. Reading takes time, and gives us the opportunity to slow down, relax and unwind, all the while enriching our lives for the better.

Reading is a form of guided meditation and you may experience this benefit immediately. Something happens in your body and mind, which in turn can reduce stress and anxiety in many people.

Reading genres are vastly varied, and whichever genre you choose you can guarantee that you'll find something for everyone

  • Art Psychotherapy allows people to work with their mental, emotional and physical wellbeing using art materials alongside talking, creating an outlet for often complex and confusing feelings, and fostering self awareness and growth.

Making and experiencing arts and culture can have a positive impact on your physical wellbeing. Art has the power to make you feel good, reducing stress and allowing the mind to focus and relax.

Expressive arts, such as writing, music, dance, drama, and other visual arts, promote deep individual and social development. People who engage in expressive art therapy can laugh, let go, and relax, which lowers tension, anxiety, and depressive symptoms.
