Thinking ahead
I'm tired. I didn't sleep well. I gained 5 pounds since Monday. It's cloudy and rainy.
Despite all that, I'm actually in a pretty good mood.
I grabbed all my knitting and crocheting magazines this morning and went through them on the train ride in. It's really taking me forever to finish these socks. At this slow rate, if I want to get anything done for my mom for Christmas, I need to start post haste. But going through the mags got me excited about starting a new project n such, so it's a good thing.
I should also go through my ravelry queue and see if there's anything there I might make. Most of those are things for me though, even if I never get around to them.
I was really hoping to get rid of much more of my stash before this though. I have yarn for another two (or is it three?) pairs of socks. I have yarn for a couple blankets. I was going to make a shell and a swimsuit cover-up. And then make some squares for a random "get rid of stash by making squares and sewing them together to make an afghan" blanket thingie.
I need to knit/crochet faster!
