Stitchy Witches!!
A question for you: Do you use your stitchcraft in your witchcraft—i.e. Use knitting/crochet/embroidery/etc. as a tool in your craft?
I’m asking because I’m a knitter of over 13 years and dabble in crochet. I’m curious as to if you use your handmade items in your spiritual practice?
It’s always mentioned that knitting/crochet are very meditative crafts, but do you use them for any other spiritual things?
Personally, I’ve made some nice pouches for my Tarot decks and altar cloths/doilies, but I’m considering branching out to designing wearables around specific intentions (perhaps for ritual-wear? Hmm?). For example, compiling a handful of stitch patterns that emulate each of the elements into a shawl to wear during ritual, or designing a sweater around protection, etc.
Have any of you thought about or played around with this concept? What are your findings? If not, are you considering it now? How will you approach it?
Thank you for entertaining my curiosity!
