Hi there knitting world,
I have fallen far behind the rest of this world. I have been knitting like crazy and I have been working like crazy. Of the two I'd prefer to make a good living doing the prior, as I am sure 90% if not 100% of you are in agreement with. I post today knowing my shawl sits waiting for me and so do the socks for my mother-in- law for Christmas. However, as I listen to Bono on my Ipod and look through LImeand Violet's blog, sticksand string blog, and cast-on. I feel I have let myself down by not keeping this journal up to par. I'm even worsened when I'm trying to cath up and read as fast as I can the "Yarn Harlot" blog to see what Stephanie is now doing. I'm not quite 30 and I look at these people who in my eyes are masters, where they may consider themselves novices. I sit here typing away and I ask myself why have you been knitting for 4 years and not tried a sweater, intarsia, or even Fair Isle. I believe I can do these and even if I hit a stumbling block I'm sure there is someone out there that could talk me through things. I hope someone reads this keep me encouraged to write and knit.
thanks from NY
