Why I Knit

Something that meets me where I am with Ailie the Thoughtful Knitter


Listen Later

Ailie hosts the Thoughtful Knitter YouTube channel. She speaks about returning to knitting in recent years as her health problems meant that she wasn't able to connect with friends and family in the same way.

Ailie speaks about her journey from a slightly reluctant knitter to someone who knits every day and focuses more on the process than the end product.
