When she became a mother, played with weaving, and created a brand, she healed herself after becoming a mother

A few years ago, I saw a feature on a platform that interviewed a hundred mothers and asked them to talk about how they had changed after becoming mothers, 65% of them stopped using perfumes, nail polish and other chemicals after becoming mothers; 55% of working mothers urgently needed a free time job; 90% of women would not travel or leave home for more than a week because they were worried and missed their children... The moment she becomes a mother, women are faced with a choice: after that, will they live with their children as the axis or with the self as the axis? What will you choose if you are reading an article?

The protagonist of this interview chooses to divide his life into two, half of the time to knit, the other half to the child. From the structural engineer to the "Weaving Life" brand manager, he is also immersed in labor, but because the latter feels the richness and happiness of life, he has found a new direction in life. At the same time, as a mother of two children, she also has a clearer definition and a deeper understanding of herself in the process of raising her children.

Early "retirement" life does not stop

For many young people, fullness is living the life they envy – retiring early, doing what they love, and discovering more of life's beauty and possibilities.

Looking back on the road, fullness will also take "resignation" as a turning point in life, the rebellion that was delayed in youth, until the last ten years have a strong presentation, followed by not only turmoil, but also a sense of self and a re-sorting of life.

"When I was a graduate student, I studied architectural structure design, which place needs to put pillars, how big and how tall the columns are, how many steel bars and cement there are, all of which we have to consider, and have nothing to do with aesthetics." When I was a child, I really didn't understand anything, I didn't have any ideals in life, I studied hard, and I worked hard. After working in the design institute for 10 years, I gradually found that my state was not right in the later stage, the problems I considered became more and more refined, aging, and I stayed up late and worked overtime every day, and my body and mind reached the threshold. ”

The entanglements that had been made before resigning, after resigning, were all left behind, this big action that affected the path of life, let Satie feel that she had opened up another world, and the original sense of constraint that made her difficult to survive at work disappeared, leaving only boundless freedom.

At first, she started Taobao clothing and worked with friends to deal with children's original paintings, but that time was painful in her eyes, and the root cause was not that things were hard to do, but that none of them could make her feel energetic, neither goal nor excitement, nor finding herself.

Later, she went to one interest class after another, and the time was filled with hobbies such as flower arrangement, painting, wool felt, tailoring, etc., and weaving was also one of them. It was this incident that allowed her to find her love by chance.

The true power of hand-made from the heart

"For as long as I can remember, my dad has loved to do all kinds of handicrafts, carpentry to make furniture, sofas, murals, baskets, clothes, he was very patient, and he also loved to study small pieces." Speaking of his love of handicrafts, He felt that his father was subtly influenced, and later met a group of friends in the knitting class, and this hobby was able to persist for a long time.

At the end of 2019, she and a few like-minded partners got together and wanted to treat weaving as a serious thing to do, rather than the previous "small fights", in their eyes, it should not be a pure technical work in the hands of the previous generation, but logic, mathematics, and a high-level aesthetic pursued throughout their lives, so the brand "Weaving a Lifetime" came into being.

Over the years, they have also opened some courses and done several exhibitions, which have given a sense of social identity that they want, in her own words, after having a goal, even if the body is tired, it does not feel tired, as long as the heart is not tired. A pair of needles and a ball of wool can bring her unlimited healing and beauty enjoyment.

When running the brand, everyone did not give themselves a lot of pressure, mainly based on their own hobbies and interests. Everyone in the team can find the right position, do the right thing, such as full of people who have a lot of ideas, think about it, don't think much about perfection or imperfection, and the reason why she insists on weaving for so many years is also because every small creation in the process brings her excitement and satisfaction.

Parenting is a journey of self-growth

As a mother of two children, half of her full life is given to weaving, and the other half is given to children. In the parent-child relationship, she and the child have adopted a friend-like mode of getting along. Usually, she will tell the children about the things they encounter in life, and the children will also tell her about the interesting things about the school or the problems they have recently wondered about. She also gives her children advice on how to behave, often having a "serious and calm conversation" with them.

For Satietta, raising children is not only to accompany them to grow, but also to find and discover themselves. "When I was a child, maybe even before I was twenty or thirty years old, I didn't know what I wanted, and when I graduated from graduate school, my life wish was to get married and have children, and I didn't think about what I wanted to do or what hobbies I wanted to have, and I felt that it was enough to live a normal life. I slowly had my own ideas before I had children, when my mother and I often had disagreements over different ways of educating, and that was when my real rebellious period came. In recent years, everyone especially likes to say that the original family, its impact on me has actually been unable to erase, until one day I have my own child, feel that the original family is actually like a book on the shelf, it has always been there, every time you take it out and turn it over, the feeling is not the same, until one day when you see it again, it may be over. ”

As the child grows up, these years have a deeper understanding of the mother and the mother, in the child, she sees the reflection of the real self, but also slowly clear what the heart wants, can be sure what kind of person they are, so that life and emotions are stable. For her, living out and finding the purpose of life and the focus of life can make children grow up healthy and happy.
