24.01.2022 In Good Knitting News this week, Perth resident Trish Lambkin (yes, thats her real name!) is rediscovering her passion for knitting, through the creation of brightly-coloured jumpers for orphaned lambs who would otherwise be at risk during the cold winter months. Mrs Lambkin has made over 300 jumpers so far, in a dazzling array of bright colours and patterns. And its not just the lambs that benefit! Mrs Lambkin credits this knitting project with keeping her busy and inspire...d during the COVID-19 lockdowns. We love stories of people using their talents to bring a bit more happiness into the world.

16.01.2022 All of us yarn lovers know there is something deeper to the practice of knit and crochet than simply making nice things. Well Swiss psychiatrist Dominique Kaehler Schweizer -- better known as Madame Tricot -- prescribes knitting as therapy for people with brain damage. The repetitive movements of knitting can help rebuild damaged connections in the brain - in her words, knitting the brain back together. She also knits as therapy for herself, creating unique art pieces that are exhibited in museums around Switzerland. Click here to watch a brief video on her practice: https://bit.ly/MadametricotNEWS
