New Knitting Thread (And spinning) (And crochet too I guess)
Barmymoo:
Resurrecting the old thread again, probably with no more success than Linds had last time. I'm still working on the jumper I started 3 1/2 years ago, but it's coming along more now than ever before - I've discovered the trick is not to store it under my bed where I forget about it...
Keep having minor problems like starting on the wrong stitch, dropping stitches, picking stitches up etc but the improvement is that I can mostly fix them myself. It still looks jumpery, even though I've had to redo at least half a dozen rows.

It's ok. I think it took me about 6-8 months to finish my sweater and then also 6 months to finish a shawl, even though both were relatively simple projects, I just didn't have the time to sit down and knit and both were a little too large to keep in my backpack to take with me to school. At least they weren't scarves. Those seem to get about a foot long and then I give up patience for them. (Except for the one I made for the boy for Christmas, but that's because it was knit lengthwise on large needles. And I love him and stuff.) Bring it with you to America! Maybe Edith will encourage some knitting time. :)
I really want to start a new knitting or crochet project, but I don't know what. Part of me wants to crochet this blanket and the other part wants to knit this vest (both in different colors). I also want to sew like mad. Crafting ADD makes things terribly difficult.
