1. I want something to stop my mind whirling and decide a small embroidery project would work perfectly. Then I remember all the finished-but-not-quite-done projects in my box and decide to sort them out instead. I sort out the sewing stuff in the ballot box and the yarn in the footstool – it’s not quite as relaxing as stitching but the colours of the yarn – freed from plastic bags – cheer me somewhat. And at the end, I find a rich teal length of yarn that begs to be turned on the lucet: both the process and the resultant cord are a pleasure.
