do they have pills for this?
what would happen if i drove to my LYS (local yarn shop), walked in, right past all the yarn and straight up to the counter (okay, that would never happen) and told them i needed a prescription for "knitter's ADD"?
i'm sure they would prescribe more yarn. more patterns, magazines, a comfy chair, some knitting needles and tell me i just needed ANOTHER new project, one that i could be happy with and LOVE working on!
i think i have "knitter's ADD". i started ANOTHER project 2 days ago. i've run out of row counters, they're all busy waiting on other projects. so i'm using a post-it note for this one. here's the ugly truth:
- manos cabled bag; (i'm making up the pattern on this one) work on this at Art 4 Soul Knit Nights
- blue sky's headband; IK staff project, cute, could be done with this in an evening, just don't do it
- Florence shrug from Rowan Classic; love and want this sweater just soooo boring, try to do 2" a day
- Nessie vest from Rowan Classic; so close to done, will have to re-work pattern (doesn't fit) and buy more yarn, i don't have enough to finish! i'm letting it rest because i don't know if i want to do either, may rip and use yarn later for something different.
- New Project, alpaca shawl; saw this in the window at Tangled Web yarn shop. one of the employees made it so they wrote the pattern down for me. it's on big needles, multi-colors and a real no-brainer.
AND....to make matters WORSE there are about 4-5 patterns i have on my "back of my mind" list and my daughter just mentioned something to me about the Handknit Holidays book so i pulled that back out, just to have a little look-see and re-saw a few more ideas........and the new knitty is up!!!!!! www.knitty.com i really need those cabled, fingerless, mitts on the cover. they would be perfect for the fall and a great traveling project for my trip to NYC that's coming up!
oh, and did i mention that i have a birthday gift certificate for a yarn shop just staring at me from my desk.
maybe if i just don't sleep!!!!!
