Lack of Commitment

I am starting to get so annoyed with myself over my whole lack of commitment. I love my Rowan wrap, I love Soho, I love Carica, I love Tempest. I am even getting to acquaint myself with the mystery blanket. I like the Without Borders Socks and the newly cast on Hermiones. I like Pimpeliesse and adore the almost finished Almerboo Bootees.

So why in Heaven's name can't I get something finished?

This time last year I was half way through Finish It Off February. It was so successful, I managed loads. This year I seem to have more stuff cast on than ever before.

Enough is enough Mrs Stashbasket. Stop bloody casting stuff on and get your arse into gear. Get off this machine, pick up the needles and knit like fury. Stop falling asleep in front of the telly, you don't have enough time to allow yourself the luxury of sleep. Give the family toast for tea (a roast dinner is just over-rated) and explain that time is running out. Finish It Off February is nearly 2 weeks old and nothing has been finished off.

Pictures will be posted every day until the end of the month so you can keep track of me.

I will not let you down.

Or if I do happen to let a few days slip, be happy in the knowledge that I am just knitting instead of computering!

Hear me chanting along "Finish it! Finish it!"

Actually, that could sound a little disturbing, like a crowd watching gladiators. Perhaps you shouldn't imagine that ;-)

You could always lapse into Make-it-up-March if you run out of time in February?! Lucy x

Locket has given you a great out Missus Stash = 'Make it up March'!

I shall remain forever in awe of your talent with needles and also in hiding from DottyCookie who seems particularly bloodthirsty tonight.

Very stern! Perhaps some of it will rub off on me....
