Curiosity kills the ‘cat’ch

It’s easy to tear the paper label and see the beginning piece of the ball of wool. So often however, we end up looking for the end piece too. Like the cat, curiosity gets the better of us and we want to play.

It actually makes no sense to try to find the end from the very beginning because if you have ever played with a ball of wool you will know that it turns out to be a real mess and you can never quite get out of the tangle.

So many people do the same with relationships. It shouldn’t be that way though. Surely being patient and letting the fibre reveal itself piece by piece is a much better way to ensure some warmth at the end of a hard day’s knit.
