Knitting socks is my comfort knitting. I was at the Cancer Center in Houston, Texas for 7 months last year and knitted socks the whole time I was there. I enjoyed going to their local yarn shops in the Houston area and I’m so blessed to have had such an amazing hobby to help keep me company as well as the many podcasters out there. Thank you for your podcast. 😊💙😊

Selma at Little Big Knits just recommended your podcast, so I hopped right over to check it out. I'm so glad I did, as I enjoyed it very much. Your projects are lovely, and I now have inspiration to get on with a pair of socks that are resting. Holst Coast is one of my favorite yarns and I am just finishing up a cool summer tee in the color saffron--so lovely. My comfort knit is in general a comfortable wearable garment, mainly tees and light-weight sweaters. A little bit of lace perhaps, but mainly stockinette in the round. So soothing.
