Major Craft Annoyance
What do you do when you are working and working at your craft Iknitting, in this case), and all of a sudden, you feel a compelling urge to walk away and never look at it again? Am I the only one who has ever felt that? It could be that ever project that I have ever worked on, it seems for nearly the past 10 months has been commissioned for someone else. I am tired of working on stuff for other people. I feel like I have lost the joy of knitting stuff for fun just because I want to. And looking forward to knitting stuff for myself. I can count on 1 hand the stuff I have made for myself, and it was usually made in a heated rush, which just sucked the fun right out of it. I can't even put it down and take a break because I am on a deadline. Ack. Then I saw a shawl that I really wanted to make in a catalog, and my hubby said that there is no way I can make it until after my California holiday because we already spent the money on the tickets. Soooo unfair! I know, logical, but totally unfair!
