Most relaxing, curling up in the corner of the sofa with needles and yarn. Or knitting in the car on long drives. I always have several projects knitting — some are good for watching movies I have seen before, but want to see again. Some are good for knitty company, and some are good for absolute mind-relaxation. Like Hemlock here. Difficultlevel high enough to engage all of my concentration, leaving no room for stress, speculation or planning ahead. Just me and the wool and the chart I work by. I have no idea what to do with the blanket. It's really too small to be a blanket, too big to be a pillow, and more about process than product.
The originator of this pattern is one of the most inspiring Knit-bloggers I know of; Brooklyntweed. Amazingly talented, inspiring and sharing! You can find many beauutiful, free patterns there.
