I think the knitting Godess is mad at me. I'm not sure why. It could be that I just went on a 'vacation' and didn't knit a single stitch after my husband took the wrong road on the way there. I was, after all, not driving. I thought I should be knitting - he thought I should be navigating. He won. But I did try.... It could also be that I never- yes I said never - have knit a swatch to check my gauge. I've been knitting for just over a year now and have never done it. But I really don't knit much more than socks or mittens - do I really deserve the wrath of the Godess for that?
Why do I think there is a problem?
1) I haven't been able to knit anything with a chart without making at least one mistake per row. That doesn't amount to much progress, or at least progress that looks ok.
2) I am actually getting tired of knitting socks. I didn't think this would ever happen - really.
3) I really don't have any desire to go to my LYS.
4) I've been thinking about my sewing machine, and am actually caught up on housework ( if you don't count the closets)
On the other hand, this could be some weird side effect of that "spinning virus" (See previous post). Because my heart does quicken at the thought of a pile of roving. Hmmmmm.
Just keep knitting, just keep knitting, just keep knitting, knitting, knitting.
