My friends tell me that I seem melancholy of late. They want me to “lighten up”. Hmmmm …. would you please have a look at my knitting bag and tell me where to begin! Does anyone else share this problem of overstuffing the knitting bag? It’s a delicate web that we weave – a slippery slope – however you phrase it – getting out of the house with the RIGHT knitting projects takes meditation, takes temperance, takes decisiveness. Imagine being stuck behind a 10 mile traffic jam on route 84 only to find that you are missing the favored project or the necessary crochet hook, or, God forbid, your knitting instructions! Talk about capricious behavior! Think U turns and panic attacks! Come on people, WHO leaves the house light on the fiber necessities? Not knitters, not the hardcore ones that I hang with!
How about that bag of mine? To say that I love it is a gross understatement. The first time that I laid eyes on it - well, covet and connive are the words really that describe what happened next. I wish that Patty would restock them – I’m sure that I could find enough projects to fill at least two more. Maybe three. Possibly four.
Happy packing… lighten up only to restock.
