Patience
My handspun yarn, worked into a Pi Shawl - an ongoing project
One of the lessons I’ve been trying to learn this past year is patience with myself and my own expectations. Too often, I’m more interested in crossing something off my list than taking the time to make sure it is done well. If there is one major stumbling block in my knitting, it is taking the time to make sure the project is done well, not just done.
I condensed my stash to two tubs (one big, one small) in preparation for our open house, tucked them away and thought I’d bring them back after a move & when things settled. But we decided to take the house off the market and stay here. We’ve been on an emotional and financial rollar coaster for the past six months and now, with all our decisions made, I’ve got about a month of NOTHING - no job hunting, no work, no packing, no unpacking. I need a project, and I think a project that encourages me to pay attention and be in the moment is in order.
I have yarn in my stash for two sweaters - one yarn is Schaefer ~ I have 2 skeins of Elaine and 3 Esperanza in a blue themed color way, for a total of about 1440 yards. And I have 9 skeins of Cestari Yarn in a muted pink color. I have a few ideas but am keeping my eyes open. If you have any ideas for an XL sized, patience teaching sweater, please let me know

Ah, decisions, decisions. Any decision that leaves you with a MONTH to knit is a good one in my book!
btw - I have your Denise need in an envelope on my desk. Can you send me your snail mail address again?

This is THE big life lesson, no?
I’m finding lace, simple lace, to be so absorbing and zen right now.
My thoughts wander too much when knitting sweaters and blankets. Sometimes that’s what I WANT my thoughts to do…..

If the 9 skeins is a dk or worsted weight i would suggest you check out the “Pure and Simple” patterns. There are some great simple and pretty easy sweaters knit on circular needles. I have completed one and have a second on the needle right now. If you like directions that are pretty easy to follow and sizes that will fit almost anyone check them out - email me if you have any questions
