“Knitters should practice our knitting with more dedication than we practice anything else. For Knitters, practicing our faith should be the number-one priority in our lives.” (Kevin Watson, A Blueprint for Discipleship, pg 62)
He didn’t really say that. He was talking about Christian Faith. I have found a way to weave my passion for knitting with my commitment to the Christian faith. If I am not knitting, meeting with knitters or reading about knitting in some way, every day, I feel “less”. So does that mean I give knitting too much of a priority?

Is God still first? If yes then knitting is not too much of a priority. I’m not so good about tithing my money but I do try to tithe time so 2.5 hours a day I charity knit. At least 30 minutes of that time is spent in the quiet praying and knitting.
