I just noticed something while knitting today.  It relates to left/right brain integration.  It is said that "left-brained" people are logic centered, ordered, etc.  Alternatively, "right-brained" people are creative, varied, etc.  Both types of people are needed, quite necessary to maintain balance.  Now, for the realization of that truth through knitting....

Two hands wrapped around two needles are needed in order to create fabric when knitting.  Now, I'm not certain whether left handed people hold their stitches on opposite needles from right handed knitters.  I can only offer what I observed from the way I hold my needles.  While I knit, the needle in my left hand logically keeps track of the number of stitches and the row that I am on in an ordered fashion as I follow a particular pattern.  My right hand, however, brings creativity into this order by forming a variety of stitches that eventually bring forth a unique design, a thing of of beauty.  

Both order and creativity flow together to manifest utilitarian works of art.  Amazing texture, color, warmth, and whimsy transform the necessary or desired into a masterpiece long loved and appreciated.  By bringing the capabilities of both sides of the brain together, peace is achieved.  Loving gifts are given.  Thankfulness is shared.  Hugs are welcomed.  Hearts are warmed.  Balance is achieved.
