Before the shawl went quite so spectacularly wrong, I was, as you know working day and night on it; racing towards a deadline. I was determined. I didn't have time to be distracted and, as always happens when neck deep in a massive project with an impossible deadline, inspiration struck.
Here is the list of all the things I want to create:
1. Cat scratch pole
2. Notice board
3. Dog bed
4. Curtain for the laundry (this has been on the list for ages)
5. Knicker bocker glory (this one actually belongs to my son but he's pretty keen to achieve expert level in this field).
6. Duvet Cover for my Son
The thing that I find most interesting about these projects is that none of them are knitting related.
As you know, I have a massive tub loaded with yarn. I have patterns and needles coming out of my wahzoo but nothing is standing out for me.
This of course will end when I am staring at my sewing machine, or welding my staple gun, wondering why I am not knitting.
