Take a good look at this photo…

Look at the pretties…

Take a look at all the pretty things I knit this year. Gorgeous sweaters hanging happily in the shop, just waiting for the weather to turn. I am proud of the sweaters, I am. I am proud of them, but I am sick of them too. I am embarrassed to even say it.
.
I am a glass half full kind of girl (I think I have talked about that before). I didn’t have a doubt that I would be able to handle all 12 sweaters. I always thought I would finish them. I struggled through a few months (March…I am looking at you) but still got them finished. Until this month. September.

I wasn’t super excited about knitting a fingering weight sweater, but I was pretty sure I could do it.
.
I didn’t take into account a bunch of drama this month that would take me away from happy knitting. I frantically stockinette stitched while thinking of all the crazy things that were happening. Every time I even thought about knitting the sweater, all the negative emotions came up again. Wierd…I know. I never anticipated that this 12 in 12 game would get the better of me. But this month. September. It did.
.
So, take a closer look at the wall of sweaters…there is one that is still in a project bag (yes even I use cheap plastic bags for project bags). Carly thought she would be funny and hang up September on the hanger. I think it is perfect there. As much as I don’t want to admit it. I am human too:)

Bring on October!

*I want to say that my drama was mild in comparison to things that other people I love were going through. I whined way more than I had a right to:)
