peace

Baby Surprise Jacket has been frogged. I know a million and one people have knit the darn thing, but it just does not work for me. If I had a schematic I would feel better about trying to guess what she means with her instructions. As I was reskeining the yarn I learned something important.

I am past the point of knitting for a challenge, or because I feel guilty about not finishing what I start. I knit to relax, to focus, to be at peace. I am at a point where anything remotely stressful, knit wise, will not be tolerated. Life is hard, knitting should not be.
