Andrea is a physical therapist and passionate knitter who is perfectly placed to provide professional advice on what to do when we suffer pain when knitting, and how to prevent it in future. Andrea speaks about how she returned to knitting as a new mum, and how it helped her to find a few minutes each day to do something for herself. She also shares her reflections as a physiotherapist on her important role in helping crafters to find ways of accessing their crafts in a sustainable way.AndreaWebsite: <a href="https://www.ptandrea.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Andrea Lui</a>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/theknittingpt/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@theknittingpt</a>Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/theknittingPT" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Knitting PT</a>Youtube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@theknittingpt" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Knitting PT</a>MiaWebsite: <a href="https://www.therapeuticknitting.org/podcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Podcast | Why I Knit Podcast (therapeuticknitting.org)</a>Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/therapeuticknitting" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Why I Knit Patreon</a>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/knittingistherapeutic/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@knittingistherapeutic</a>

Intentional crafting with Marceline of Hey BrownBerry

Welcome to the Why I Knit podcast!  My name is Dr Mia Hobbs and I am a Clinical Psychologist who is passionate about the mental health benefits of knitting.
Each episode of the podcast I interview a different knitter about why they knit and the (k)nitty gritty of how it impacts their mental wellbeing.  
I have an inspiring and diverse range of knitters lined up who have generously shared their stories with me.
You can follow me on Instagram @knittingistherapeutic and get more information on the therapeutic benefits of knitting at my website www.therapeuticknitting.org
