And as such, I'm only knitting with cotton yarn. I've given up on the sweater dress until I finish the Lelah top. I just did two pattern repeats tonight while watching a movie. It's probably about five inches long now. I can already see that I'm going to need to do more repeats than stated in teh pattern. I like my tops slightly longer. Who knows, maybe I'll just keep going and make it a tunic. That way I can wear it as a cover up at the beach, and a top for the clubs.
Actually, I don't think I have the patience or the yarn for that. I've done five repeats total, and I think I'm going to need to do atleast seven more, and that it just blowing my mind right now, because,as strange as it sounds, I don't want to knit right now.
I think it has to do with Christmas. All I did for months before Christmas was knit and knit and knit. I made presents I hated (which was my first mistake) and didn't work on anything for me. Then in that post-Christmas excitement of getting interchangeable needles I cast on more projects than I can deal with at once and I'm just overwhelmed. I'm hoping that by finishing Lelah I'll get some confidence back, and I'll be onto working on the sweater dress again in no time.
