All of a sudden I found myself doubting how this sock that I’m knitting will come out. I stopped and thought about the oddities involved, did some math, and still felt dubious.
Then I thought, “What’s the worst thing that could happen?” and decided to forge ahead with my original plans. If I have to frog some knitting and start over a bit, well, that’s part of designing!
Each new design I knit seems to spark at least one new idea. I suppose this is a good sign, but it’s hard to keep up! (I’m making sketches so I don’t lose track of the brainstorms.)
I’m pleased to say that my designing enthusiasm is continuing – now if only I can actually get myself to write things up!
There’s two things I’ve been meaning to do:
With Sock Summit coming up, I’m feeling more inspired. I don’t yet know if I will be able to afford to go; however, there’s no reason not to work on the socks in any case.
I call myself a string geek because I like doing a whole range of hand crafts, most of which involve string or yarn: knitting, spinning, sewing, nalbinding, crochet, embroidery, tatting, dyeing, and probably some I’m not even thinking of.
Hello!
