“Live your truth. Express your love. Share your enthusiasm. Take action towards your dreams. Walk your talk. Dance and sing your music. Embrace your blessings. Make today worth remembering.” – Dr. Steve Maraboli.

Knitting often helps us stay focused and calm. Recently my husband had the battle of his life. Knitting helped me to calm my emotions and reflect on the daily blessings each day had to offer. After 3 months in the hospital he is home and getting stronger. Reflecting on daily blessings still helps to keep my stress level down as I take care of him at home.

Daily Blessings is a crescent shaped shawl that will help you remember to reflect daily on your blessings.
