works in progress

so many projects, in progress and in queue.
can't write... too busy making, and planning.
i hope the things in my head will look as beautiful once they are made.

why?

why does fable love to sleep on mohair?
and how did she get to be so adorable?
why is the hardest (or most tedious) part of the project always the last part?
why does salmon soup make my body go zing?

why?

why does my 'to knit list' seem to get longer and longer
far quicker than my 'have knit list'?
why hasn't my silk lining arrived in the mail?
why am i procrastinating hand sewing the vintage dress?

how many unfinished works are to many?

moving house

gardening has come to a halt.
my landlord is selling my house.
i hope i can harvest the pumpkins before i move.
i guess it's an opportunity to focus more energy on my knitting and sewing pursuits.

why?

why do I knit with such small needles?
it seems like such a good idea at the beginning.
I like the effect...
it just makes everything take forever.
