Im also trying to use creative projects to push through. I have a big plastic bin full of kits and projects I haven't started, so I am on a mission. Currently have half the front of a jumper knitted, and two out of 4 linen napkins sewn but not embroidered on yet!

I absolutely hate that I have to be the person to write this, and I swear I'm not regularly a killjoy POS, and actually I LOVED The Mists of Avalon in like a spiritual way... but unfortunately I found out a few years ago (and a few years late) that Marion Zimmer Bradley was an utterly garbage human being in a way that makes me unable to read any more of her books and in fact makes me want to set them all on fire. Please observe a severe trigger warning before you google especially for survivors.

I believe in you re:knitting! Such a rewarding habit and skill to build. My friends and I like to think of our anxiety induced knitting as “charging” the knits — as we stitch along sometimes we can get the anxiety to leave our bodies :) you probably are well aware of ravelry at this point, but I highly recommend taking a look at the projects section of the pattern you’re working on, and even posting your own project and asking for advice there if you need it! Also you can sort projects according to how “helpful” they’ve been ranked, and often the project pages can provide super useful supplementary info
