Who Needs to Knit?

August 18, 2010

The last knitting project I was working on stalled at about this point:

This photo is from last Christmas when I decided, after too many mistakes to count, to frog my first pair of socks. The fact that they are "froggy" green is simply a sweet irony.

This brings the total of my completed knitting projects to... one, this little shawl I finished last fall.

I'm a flow-with-the-life-season kind of gal and have come to terms with spring and summer not being my knitting, sewing or any other handicraft season. Except for my needle felting workshop in May and the teensy sewing I did for the girls in July I haven't stitched anything with my hands this summer.

And I'm totally ok with that because I've decided why learn to knit when I know someone who can knit socks like these?
