Description:
Could employers be interested in incorporating this hobby into their wellness programs? It might be a fun way to reduce stress at work, but how would I pitch it? I wonder if others have tried to transform similar hobbies into workplace initiatives.

Knitting as a corporate wellness activity? Love that idea! It’s like giving stress a cozy little sweater to wear. Employers might actually dig it because it’s a screen-free, mindful break from emails and Zoom calls. Pitch it as a creativity-boosting, team-bonding, hand-eye coordination miracle. Maybe throw in some stats about how crafting lowers cortisol levels? By the way, are you thinking group workshops or just solo knitting zones? Because that changes the vibe big time!
