Blog about a pattern or project which you aspire to. Whether it happens to be because the skills needed are ones which you have not yet acquired, or just because it seems like a huge undertaking of time and dedication, most people feel they still have something to aspire to in their craft. If you don’t feel like you have any left of the mountain of learning yet to climb, say so!
So many projects inpire and awe me. So many are just totally out of my league at this point, be it in ability or time. I have made leaps and bounds, but I have so far to go. I really think that the apex for me at this point is the Nightingale by Vintage Purls. You can find it on Ravelry. She took a sock pattern of beautiful nightingale birds perching on trailing tree/vine thingys and turned it into an amazingly complex pattern of a shawl collared cardigan. Yes, that is what I said, A CARDIGAN! I don't even know how it enters into your head to do that. It would never even occur to me. I'm in awe. I want to bend down, prostrate myself, and say,"I'm not worthy! I'm not worthy!"
