Time and Knitting

by Joy Bassetti-Kruger

Overview

Time and Knitting is about how the the old craft of knitting is now bringing women together in a relaxing atmosphere where they can chat and make friends. Its also about the changing concept of time. Kairos time, being the type of time when everything happens at the right time and Tempus fugit, or time that flies, being the time that most of us live in right now. It shows how knitting circles, where women knit and natter and drink tea, is helping women to regain the concept of Kairos time, that most of them lose sight of as they rush around madly doing lift schemes, shopping and trying to run a home, as well as do a job.

About the Author

I began my library career at the Jhb. public library, and while I worked there part time, I also completed my Library Exams with the SALA. Then I was headhunted by Ekom, as I'd specialized in information retrieval and they needed someone to obtain current information on various projects for their engineers. Later I moved to Control Data, where I learned all about storing such information on their large computers. All the while, I also taught ballet, modern and Spanish, dancing in my spare time, as I'd trained as a dance teacher while still at school. After I married I ran two dancing studios for adults, where I also began to teach yoga and passive exercises. In my youth I danced for PACT for a while, but as I was still studying at the time, -I decided to give this up, although I continued to dance in various productions at the Civic Theater in Johannesburg. -Showboat, The Merry Widow, Guys and Dolls, to name a few. As I'd also joined two writing circles previously, I'd been writing all along, - mostly short stories. But then an opportunity came up for me to include English Literature and Creative Writing in my studies, so this is when my writing career really took off, even though I never published anything until recently, when I first uploaded stories on a local SA site,then Kindle, Kobo and now finally that I've cracked the 'meat-gringer," I've loaded some new stories on to Smashwords, which I think is a really wonderful site for writers, as it forces us to confront all the issues and make certain that everything is correct..
