041 Power Purls Unplugged: Letting Go of the End Result with Your Knitting

Published: Aug. 9, 2016, 12:36 p.m.

Today I continue with this topic of knitting with a mindful intention on today's edition of Power Purls Unplugged on this #FreeformFriday! Do you struggle unless you see the end result? Is starting with the end in mind always the right way to start? Paying attention to what's happening moment by moment\xa0is what this episode explores today. and the idea of deciding in advance to "cultivate not\xa0knowing" the end can provide you with special surprises that you wouldn't find unless you let go. Not knowing the next step in both life and knitting can be a roller coaster ride of uncomfortable and exciting feelings, but so worth experiencing\xa0this as part of our life's journey.\xa0 \xa0 Join me every Friday at 12pm EST on\xa0Facebook.com/PowerPurlsPodcast\xa0for my live broadcast. To watch past videos, you can find them in the video\xa0library on the Power Purls Facebook page. \xa0 Episode and video highlights:

  • Forget the pattern, focus on the stitches and movement.
  • Don't let skill levels defeat you. If you see something you love - then go for it.
  • Don't let the comfort of knowing the end take over. Be a stitch adventurer!
  • Do you think of frogging\xa0as torture or a learning experience?
  • I'm often reminded in my life of the wise words of my late grandfather - "Try it you'll like it!" he was always right.
  • How we often hold on to wanting our finished project to be a certain way, but what if that doesn't happen?
