Podcast Episode 15: To Knit or Not To Knit?

Several of my friends were freeing themselves of neglected and guilt-inspiring projects this week. It got me thinking about how to handle those knit garments we enthusiastically cast on and then lose interest in for some reason. So often we keep them around with the vain hope that we will fall in love with them again. But, I don’t think that ever really happens. Rather than let your energy be drained by these dead-end projects, get rid of them!! It is so liberating and then you can go on to knit something you truly love.

My current grandmother knitting is all finished. Buttons have been secured on all seven kimono jackets and the Baby Surprise Sweater. I am going to focus on my Plain Pi Shawl for a few days. I also want to play around with a few Fair Isle designs for Hendrix’s little twin-set. Thank you for the podcast suggestions you sent to me. They gave me many fun ideas. Please be sure to pass on any others that you may think of in the future. You can send an e-mail to podcast@knitpicks.com.
