A couple days ago, I wrote about the great big ol' list of knitting that has to be finished in the next five months. Then I promptly started working on . . . something else.
I don't know why. I just did. I saw a neglected project that only needed a repair and a few more rows. I had cast off the Circle Charity blankie, then realized that I had screwed up. The edges curled unattractively. I knew what I had to do. I had to frog back the cast off, do a few rows of something that wouldn't curl, then cast off again. Not difficult, but the blankie sat there for a good month. I set up a schedule, and feel compelled to deviate from it.
Hmmm, maybe I can use this in the future. Recognize the neglected project, set a schedule for something else, work on neglected project . . .
The good news, I have finished those three rows of non-curling seed stitch, and casting off (while watching the first presidential debate).
I need more wine, if not for the knitting, then for the politicians.
Today, it is all about the schedule or anti-schedule.
