So I have been dutifully working to knit off many projects from needles. I had run out of needles onto which to add new projects so I vowed to no longer start any projects until I had finished EVERYTHING I had started. Ha. Ha. Ha. Since then I had to rip off a purse from one set of needles to knit a sweater for Olive (see previous post) I started a skirt after ripping out a cotton silk blend in a lovely purple that was the most awful sweater ever, looked HORRENDOUS on me. I also started a pair of green, teal, blue and yellow wool socks. But today I finished a wool vest for Morgan and now have exactly four more rows to knit on a linen sweater I started three (or was it four?) years ago. But then I had to go to a yarn store with my Mom and had to buy yarn to knit an afghan for a coworker who is getting married, and yarn to make a 2 baby sweaters to sell at the Plowshares Festival next year. Oh and did I mention the afghan book and the baby sweater books I had to purchase because I cannot make up my own patterns without a baby to measure and I am afghan clueless. Sweaters for the daughter or me, a hat, socks, mittens, fingerless gloves yes. Baby sweaters and afghans not so much. But after this no holds barred. I came home and immediately started knitting. I have a baby sweater to finish and a bag I will never finish and that purse to stick back on the needles and finish. Then afghan and baby sweaters here I come. Oh I cannot wait. Did I mention that my hemp satchel is full of yarn oh over flowing, and my little settee, and the cupboard and the shelves and the little mini cart. Oh forget it. I LOVE YARN!!!!!
