But for all the boredom, go I . . .

Right after the last post, I pulled myself up by my bootstraps, gave myself a good talking to and got knitting. I'm still knitting steadily.

I completed and blocked 4 shawls within the last 2 weeks.

I'm rather impressed at myself.

The shawls were:
Summer Shawl knitalong pattern by Wendy Knits
Growing Leaves shawl by Lankakomero
Iris knitalong by Krazee Kitty
and

. . .

I can't remember. I washed it and pinned it out. . .come on - it's the shawl that was being described in the previous post . . .
oh!

Seafoam Shawl by Sarah Barbour.

Whew. (Not because I did all that work, but because I remembered).

I'm hoping beyond hope that I can continue this rate of knitting and pattern completion. Now, concidering that I've got 4 patterns that just need sewing up and blocking, there's a very good possibility I can actually do it.

But. There's a small metal blockage that's preventing me from sewing up those patterns. I don't know why. It's not as if I have to do complex mathematics or physical gymnastics in order to thread or hold a needle. *sigh*

I really want to complete one of them. I'm not so happy about another one, and a third is just a bit fiddly. The last one. . .
The last one. I'm not sure why I'm so reluctant to get the last one finished, but I'll go look at it again and post the reason in a future post.


I've got to go knit - GOT to.
I love this productivity, really, I do.

I'm SO happy.

Later.
