Smiling (and knitting) can be good for your health

Recently, scientists have linked smiling to several different health benefits (boosting of the immune system, lowering blood pressure, releasing endorphins and producing serotonin, among others).  But it doesn't take a scientist to realize that one of the best benefits to smiling is that it can become utterly contagious.

I promise, Janelle Haskin's ETSY shop will make you smile.  If her photos somehow don't get your facial muscles turning right side up, then seeing her super-cute, hand-knitted scarves and accessories will surely do the trick.  Have a looksy...and be sure to pass that contagious smile along.

All of Janelle Haskin's items are handmade and "knit to order".  Even that phrase brings a smile to my face...
