Challenge #342 - week of 20th January 2020

This post was started before Christmas and then edited and continued two weeks ago, so let's try to get it finished now shall we?

All my Christmas decorations were put away several weeks ago now but I did keep out a few winter items that I think look good and give me a little hygge feel at this dull, grey time of year. I have some stars, some reindeer and a couple of cute little wrapped tea-lights.

They were a hand-made gift from my mum some time ago and I love how cosy and cute they are. The colours don't go with our tree or living room decorations so I always keep them right here in my craft room and love the soft glow they provide. So when my eye fell on them, I thought it would be a fun prompt - one that fits into this time of year with all the cold weather around.

And this is where my inspiration comes from today.

I'd like you to be inspired by knitted items.


Let's think about a few different ways to take this prompt.
  • do you have a favourite knitted garment that you just love to wear?
  • do you get excited when it's cold enough to justify getting those winter woolies out of the back of the wardrobe?
  • perhaps you or someone close to you knit and that could be your main focus today
  • how about a knitted gift (I can see two right here in my room!)
  • how about a funny story about learning to knit or even teaching someone to knit
  • there are a lot of knitted designs in our scrapbooking products - papers, stickers, embellishments that you could use - both drawn or photorealistic
  • how about using a real piece of knitting in some way on your page?
  • I can imagine being inspired by the word itself "knit" which of course means to join together which could be the drive for your story


Whichever way you decide to take my prompt, I really hope you'll share. It would be great to see what you make.  You can connect with us in our Facebook group here. Tag your entry with #WMXXX (with the number of the prompt instead of the XXX) so we know exactly which inspiration you've taken.


Have a great day everyone!
