Day 46. 365grateful - French knitted necklaces

As is totally normal for me, I had a day obsessed with french/spool knitting necklaces! It's my way to get obsessive about a new technique. I usually find something else to replace it but I don't forget what I've learnt. I feel like I just collect them somewhere in my creative brain. I hope that one day it'll all come together in a mixed media piece of epic proportions! So I am grateful for French knitting with beads today.

Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful. Buddha

The 365 Grateful Project
In early 2008, in an effort to fight depression, Hailey Bartholomew started a year long photographic project which involved taking one Polaroid photo a day of something she felt grateful for.
I thought that this was such a fab idea I would do it as well. I have been blipping on and off recently but I lost my enthusiasm for it when I felt that every day was the same, always going to the same place. However, I think that documenting something I am grateful for each day gives it a different slant.
