I've been wanting to start a knitting blog for several months now, and I'm glad I finally have. I was concerned I wouldn't be able to write about my projects as well as I wanted to, or that I wouldn't knit enough to warrant a whole blog about it, or that you old pros out there would think I'm silly and terrible at knitting, but I finally got over it and just started writing about it. I just had to keep reminding myself that to write anything means getting over a few self-conscious issues and just doing it.
There are still some glitches I'm working through with this blog. For one, I want a sidebar that can show the projects I'm currently working on, how far into each one I am, maybe pictures of them in their current states, something like that. I also want to get some pictures of my finished projects up here.
Those things aside, I'm excited to get to writing about my projects. I have a ton because I get so excited, and I just want to knit all the thing. Additionally, if i get bored or frustrated or run out of yarn or whatever on one things, I can work on another. Hopefully writing about knitting and you, reader, will keep me accountable for my knitting so I don't fall behind and end up giving apologies instead of finished hats and scarves and things for Christmas.
Happy knitting!
An exploration of fiber arts to make beautiful and cozy pieces that I and my loved ones can live in and enjoy, as well as the constant battle to keep my craft room 'splosion under control.
