Yep, it’s the brown sweater again. And yep, I’m still reading A Storm of Swords. You can scroll back (and you won’t have to scroll very far back) and find me admitting these same basic truths every Wednesday for the last few weeks. I did knit and read last weekend, but without any real progress. It was like I was on a giant knitting and reading treadmill. Last night, though, I came up with an idea for a sweater I really want to design and knit – and of course I think about reading. I think about it all the time. Sharing space with the brown sweater today is Morris Dickstein’s memoir Why Not Say What Happened, which is another book I want to read soon – whenever this thing we call “reading” re-enters my life.
But all is well, I promise. All is quite well.
Yarn Along is hosted by Ginny on her blog, Small Things.
I often feel like this, and when people look at my yarn along posts it is the same things week after week…last week I had to take a week off just because I figured no one really wanted to see that I was knitting yet another dishcloth and still looking for a book to read 🙂
I suppose it’s a sign that we have other things going on in our lives, which is a good thing. But then I always say that Ginny has. 7 kids and always has new projects going. Trying not to compare…
Progress is progress, even if it isn’t visible week to week! Enjoy the process.
Sometimes we are all in this place.
Agree — thanks!
