How Handwork Correlates To Learning

a: Thinking ~
b: cosmic knitting

What:

"Thinking is like cosmic knitting,"Waldorf school founder Rudolf Steiner wrote nearly one hundred years ago. Steiner developed a comprehensive handwork curriculum for Waldorf students based on this idea, filled with knitting, sewing and woodworking, believing that "a person who is unskillful in his fingers will also be unskillful in his intellect, having less mobile ideas and thoughts."
