Yesterday was I Love Yarn Day. I spent my day finishing a holiday gift for a friend of mine and getting excited again about knitting. "Why were you getting excited about knitting again? Don't you knit?," you ask? Well, over the summer, I had a huge (restless) lull in my knitting where I tried to knit but, I kept making mistakes or was unhappy with how my knitting was moving along or was finished. In the end, I pretty much abandoned my knitting for the last few months. I simply binged read instead. However, while I binged read, my "pile" of knitting was "staring" at me beckoning me to come back and reminded me how much I actually missed knitting. Whatever did I do with myself prior to discovering knitting?! 🤔😳😔😱😠So, I spent the day being excited that I was feeling the desire to knit again, as well as actually accomplishing a quick project. I've even started going through my stash (& associated stash of projects!) and have felt that spark of excitement of trying another new pattern and the simple joy of knitting again.
And, this is how I spent I Love Yarn Day: actually knitting again, feeling the joy of knitting, being excited about knitting and enjoying the satisfaction of starting and finishing a project. 🥰💕🙌🎉🎊🥳
