Hello, my name is TerryAnn, but because I love Teddy Bears so much, all my friends call me BearyAnn.

I learned to knit as a child in the 4H club. Then, when my children were young I enjoyed knitting and crocheting many of their toys. Later I started learning about new technologies and got hooked on computers. Between that, and a career, and raising my 2 girls I set needle crafts aside.

I recently returned to knitting as a way to distract myself from my chronic pain and help keep my spirits up during those especially high pain episodes. And it does help.

One time, while I was untangling a ball of yarn, I pondered how my life was a tangled mess and only God could guide me through the tough times as well as the good.

 This led me to think of other word pictures and how they relate to knitting, God and the Bible. I then sought out Bible studies centered around knitting. There was very little to be found.

So I started writing down my own stories and word pictures. I sought out scripture, meditated and prayed over them and my writing. Once some friends heard what I was doing, they asked me to share it with them.

“Our Knitting Bible Study is a place where we can just sit for a time, relax with knitting project, and really enjoy resting in the Lord.”
 

“Our Knitting Bible Study is a class where we can enjoy a relaxed setting to talk about what God is showing us in His word, while we learn and practice needle work we can share as ministry needs, gifts, or just for fun.”
 

“We have the chance to get to know one another a little better because we have two things in common, our love for the Lord, and the blessing of knitting together.”
 

I've completely updated the Bible Study from the original version for you.

In addition to the 10 lessons I have included a "Suggested Project" for each lesson The project is either a pattern or instructions for finding the pattern on the internet. The patterns are only suggested because everyone knits at a different pace, and some like working on their own projects.

Also included in the Knitting Bible Study are Journal pages where you can write down your thoughts and discoveries as you work through the questions and memory verse at the end of each lesson.

BONUS: I put together a concise book with an illustrated beginners Knitting Lesson plus a Scarf Pattern. I've included these free with your purchase and download.
