Focus
As I was knitting last night, I kept getting more and more agitated. It wasn't the pattern, it wasn't the yarn...it was ME! I am so annoyed with myself for having unfinished projects it's starting to aggrivate me. I need to focus. Luckily, we are just around the corner from July. Where I will spend my weekends knitting and not socializing (so I think anyway!).
So, I pulled the Log Cabin blanket back out. As of now, I've finished this square, but this is what I had a few hours ago. I had best purchase the yarn before the new catalog hits though, because Dena's pattern is going to make it FLY out of the store!
I can see how the Log Cabin thing is addicting. I'm also working on the Leaf Cardigan from Fitted Knits. I really want to finish it, as it clears up yarn that is living in the closet (on the shelf though...our pretty closet is still clean). It's being boring right now though. Back and forth, back and forth.
And, the socks are on the side burner (not the back burner) for the moment. I still love them, but these are the pressing projects at the moment. Oh yeah, and the Harry Potter Skinny Scarves I'm making out of Charmed Knits. Gotta get those done. I ripped out what I had...
Now, I leave you with a picture of Agnes. She was really needy yesterday, so I picked her up and put her on my bed while I was being sucked in by the internet (only got me for about 45 minutes today).
She was rubbing her face on the Mac. Right after I took the picture, I looked at it, laughed and started to say "Hey, it looks like she's eat....HEY she IS eating it!" Yeah, she started chewing on the Mac! That didn't last long. The "HEY" exclamation made her jump back off the bed.
P.S. I just realized pretty much everything in the background of the picture is Disney...Minnie, Mickey, Figment, Scrump (Lilo's doll...which by the way is impossible to find, and has been since I got mine, I've looked because Chelsea covets mine. Every time she's over, which is only a few times a year, she looks for Scrump). I'm feeling the need to go back...BAD!!!
