Amidst the current pandemic our world is facing, there’s an underlying sense of panic. Everyone is asked to stay home and isolate, and many of us aren’t sure what to do with ourselves. On the bright side, it’s an introvert’s paradise, really. Let’s all knit socks in the comfort of our own homes and be grateful we have the internet to share our creations.
