Unless it's something you can dedicate a few minutes to and drop down to that area and fix it....<br /><br />As for forcing yourself to do one or the other (frog/fix or leave it)....it's all a matter of how badly you want that finished object. If it's just "eh, if I finish it, I finish it, and if I don't, oh well", you'll never get it done. I like to work with deadlines, so that it forces me to get projects done. Of course...when I knit for myself, it's always in between paid/deadline projects, so I have to knit fast. :)<br /><br />AND...I find it funny that my word verification word has the word "stall" in it....Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09347254430391520325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15157906.post-23581741505790004622010-11-08T06:54:46.069-05:002010-11-08T06:54:46.069-05:00It's a sock, Socks are fast.

But I know what you mean about putting projects down for eons and not knowing where I left of and then not even wanting to try and continue. This is me and sweaters. I'll get my crap together. <br /><br />But yes, do rip and start again.

And the good thing - a few days later it was redone and wearable. Socks are fast - frog and reknit.<br /><br />In the future, if it's a complicated pattern, use a lifeline.

I've got rugs and blankets and everything else half finished, and with no clue "where I was" when I left off LOL!<BR/><BR/>But anyway, I wanted to let you know I got the Yak Yarn in the mail today!!!! Woooo hooooo!! You really made my day, cause I've never seen Yak Yarn before, and it is sooooo soft :) After debating for a long time about what to make with it, I decided that I'm going to make an afghan out of it plus a big bag of Egyptian Cotton yarn I have in a lovely beige color. <BR/><BR/>Since I suck at doing large projects like afghans, I decided to use the pattern I found here:<BR/><BR/>http://www.canadianliving.com/crafts/knitting/easy_knit_afghan.php<BR/><BR/>It makes an afghan out of approx. 72 knit squares. So I can make one square a night and work on it that way! And since I probably don't have enough awesome yak yarn to finish an afghan this will let me use my egyptian cotton as well as the yak yarn to make a gorgeous blanket for my bedroom!<BR/><BR/>Thank you SO SO very much, I'm so excited that I won, and so excited to get such an awesome prize - I've already completed my first square with it too!<BR/><BR/>And congratulations on going back to knitting yourself :)Stephanie Dhttp://www.teareviewblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15157906.post-7532032977874547922009-03-28T23:41:00.000-04:002009-03-28T23:41:00.000-04:00I went to School Products the last time I was in t...I went to School Products the last time I was in the city. My knitting friend Cindy seemed to be making it up as she went along. There we were, scamming our way into an office building on a weekend, and we were like "are you SURE" and she was like "YES why won't you TRUST me, it's HERE" and lo and behold YARN STORE. It was one of the highlights of that particular trip.<BR/><BR/>Heehee.<BR/><BR/>-elainekostiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00421321158173999309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15157906.post-80375077925813171002009-03-28T18:05:00.000-04:002009-03-28T18:05:00.000-04:00Welcome back to Knitting!
