在当今繁忙的世界中，可能很难找到时间放慢脚步并为单纯的制作乐趣腾出时间，因此克莱尔•杨斯（Clare Youngs）设计了一系列美丽而诱人的项目，以帮助您体验用自己的双手制作东西所带来的乐趣和满足感。通过手艺练习正念的**的一点就是，最后你可以得到一件看得见的东西，您可以从以珊瑚礁为灵感的刺绣箍开始，或者只是将绒球和流苏添加到靠垫或毯子的边缘。您可以学习诸如活版印刷，冲孔针刺，Shibori染色，编织，流苏花边和缝被子之类的技术，所有这些技术都鼓励采用正念的方法，以及一种体验“心流”感的方法。使用羊毛，棉，亚麻和皮革等天然材料为自己和您的家创造独特的事物。

In today’s busy world, it can be difficult to find time to slow down and make time for the simple joy of making, so Clare Youngs has designed a wide range of beautiful and tempting projects to help you experience the pleasure and satisfaction that making something with your own hands can bring. The best thing about practising mindfulness through craft is that you have something tangible to show at the end, and you can start small with the coral reef-

inspired embroidery hoops, or just by making pompoms and tassels to be added to the edge of a cushion or blanket. You can learn techniques such as block printing, punch needling, shibori dyeing, weaving, macramé and quilting, all of which encourage a mindful approach, and a way to experience a feeling of 'flow'. Make unique things for yourself and your home, using natural materials such as wool, cotton, linen and leather. Clare is a believer in making new things from old, using what you have and adapting old fabrics to counteract a throwaway society, and all her designs have a Scandinavian-inspired, modern aesthetic.
