The Trouble With Knitting
Mar. 19th, 2010 07:54 pmI enjoy knitting, I'm actually competent at it and produce fairly even work though I've never tried anything complicated, I can do it for a longish while without it hurting my hands, but...
... I never, ever finish anything, ever. It's partially that I enjoy knitting but don't like to choose new things to make or own, so when something is nearly finished that's the good bit over with. And it's partially that at one stage or another someone small interrupts me in a yarn-destructive way and I just don't prioritise knitting highly enough to prevent that from happening.
But I'd like to do it anyway, sometimes...
Perhaps I can find a simple round hat pattern. It ought to be ready by autumn if I start now.
