This is helpful! As long as I know there are ways to mitigate it, I'm willing to experiment.
And who am I kidding? I'm crazy for even wanting to learn a new hobby at this point because I barely have time to sleep as it is but knitting looks fun.
PLUS, I like doing something where there is an end result that I can hold
