In Progress

I’ve always been the sort of knitter who prefers to focus on one project, watch it grow, customize it along the way, block it with a flourish, and then move on to the next project.

But I have not been true to form lately. Before I’ve finished one project, I’m starting another, and then another…

A pile of works in progress!

I don’t think I can honestly claim to be a one-project-at-a-time knitter any more becauseĀ I currently have:
… four shawls,

Just need to sew on the ties & block!

Waiting in the wings are: several pairs of mitts for friendsĀ , various baby itemsĀ for my newest niece or nephew on the way, and two toy rabbits!

All in all, I’m feeling a bit overwhelmed and quite behind with my knitting. As much as I hate to do it, I think it may be time to work on bringing my knitting expectations back into line with reality again… šŸ˜‰

What does your To-Knit list look like? Are you a knitter who enjoys working multiple projects at a time, or do you prefer to focus on one thing at a time?
