What makes my hobby so special?

I'm really into telling you about my hobby. Let me introduce my


favorite type of spending spare time – knitting. It’s an essential activity in
my life for the reason that it helped me overcome the hardest days when
I almost lost my family. Knitting means using two long needles to
connect wool or another type of thread into joined rows. And I'm going to
tell you why this simple activity is really important to me.
“I need water and food to survive, I need yarn to live”
Not everyone has the possibility to buy new clothes for winter every
year. Therefore this quote is valuable in view of the fact that people with
limited financial resources have the opportunity to save money and
escape the cold by making warm clothes themselves. I can confidently
say that this is a great opportunity to save money and make high-quality
and slightly clothes. I can give an example of a case when I needed a
gift for a friend’s birthday, moreover, my parents were in another city. At
that time, neither I nor my sister had a map, however, there were buckles
and knitting needles. O knitted her a magic scarf in the style of Slytherin
from the “Harry Potter” movie. She liked my gift, and I, in turn, saved
time and money on purchases.
As I mentioned before thanks to the knitting I survived the difficult
days of my family. There was a time when my parents had difficulties
with their work. More precisely at Dad’s work. Unfortunately, I can't say
the details. However, even nowadays I remember the time when my
parents weren’t at home. We couldn’t even spend the New Year and the
winter holidays together. As I remember I hadn't been able to see my
father for two or three months. My mom would wake up very early and
go to my father's or somewhere else. So the only thing that could cheer
me up was knitting. I used to knit and watch my favorite shows with my
sisters all day. It helped me that time. I always forget about my problems
when I’m knitting. I'm too immersed in the process to think about
anything. I even stop listening and forget about my surroundings.
In conclusion, I want to say that knitting is very important to me for
the reason that it helped me overcome difficulties and gave me a chance
to meet my long-waited brother. I'm thankful to my teacher who
introduced and taught me to this hobby. Likewise, as a person, who is
easy to lose his temper, I can assure you that it is calming and relaxing.
This is what you need if you need to take your mind off your thoughts.
