Knitting monogamy
I have a confession to make. I have a problem with knitting monogamy.
A serious problem.
At the moment I don’t have a ravelry project widget, and there’s two reasons for that. The first is that I can’t get either of the premade ones to work with my Wordpress theme, and the second is that I have more WIPs than is frankly sane. I finished Seraphim at the beginning of March, and then a pair of socks, but I’m back to bouncing back and forth between projects again. Currently I have, on the needles and not hibernating: Lace Ribbon Scarf, Kiri, Anastasia Socks, Icarus and Bramble.
The hibernating/half finished projects alone are kind of ridiculous so I won’t even try to list them here. I keep telling myself that I should finish one project before I start another, but then I get distracted by gorgeous yarn or a pretty pattern, and then I can’t help myself.
This is especially bad when I just want to finish whatever I’m knitting, but is even worse when I get distracted by other crafts.
Like these:
Oranges, lemons, and eggplants in various stages of completion
Or this:
A shawl pin I’m playing around with
Or this:
An orifice hook I made for the one I um… broke.
Or, the first bobbin of a two ply yarn I’m spinning from some superwash top I bought a few years ago
I’ve had a few tendonitis flares for the past few weeks, which is part of the reason I try to alternate my crafty pursuits, but it’s also just that there are too many things I want to make and not enough time to make them in!
