I am still knitting this sweater. I feel like I'll be knitting it for a while, but I am content with my slow knitting. It's all about the finished project and the memories that you make while knitting. Recently, I was thinking about my passions in life and one of them is knitting. To me it's amazing what you can make a ball of you, a pair of needles, and two hands. It's incredible to think.
Right now I am reading Coming Attractions. The book is the third in a series that I love. I believe I have been reading books by this author since I was in 7th grade. Love this series and this author.
What are you knitting & reading?
I love that you are savoring your knitting project. The process is just as much fun as the finished project!
ReplyDeleteIt is looking lovely. I'll have to look into that book series as well.
ReplyDeleteand do tell about the flamingo???! How cute! Did you paint that?!?
ReplyDeleteI wish I did! But you can buy it here, http://elisejoy.com/make29printpack :)
DeleteLove your sweater, it's beautiful. I must look up the book and I love the flamingo.
ReplyDeleteSlow and steady wins the race. It's not about how fast you finish - what matter is that you are enjoying the journey!
ReplyDeleteOh, it will be so lovely and worth all the work!
ReplyDeleteI love this slow and meditative knitting - that's really how you collect memories and incorporate them into the work, don't you think?
Yes the slow process is the best! :)
DeleteKnitting any project, but sweater's in particular take time and should be enjoyed, never rushed so you just enjoy the whole process Melissa Marie. It's looking great!
ReplyDeleteYour sweater looks like it will be very pretty! I love knitting with white yarn :)
ReplyDeleteClearly, you have photography as a gift, too! Your sweater looks lovely so far and I love the colour!
