start knitting again

The title of the goal is “to START knitting again”, and I have indeed STARTED knitting again. I think the problem with my knitting was actually in FINISHING whatever I was knitting. I am in the middle of making a pair of green-and-grey socks for my lover. I hope it lasts (the knitting, that is).

I’ve been an avid knitter since the age of 5, always something on the needles but rarely finishing anything. I had to stop for a while because I had a bad case of carpal tunnel syndrome, but now (after 5 months) it seems to have cleared. I’d be all ready to start again!

I don’t want to knit anything for the baby, he’s too small and grows out of his clothes too quickly – it’s not worth the effort. I’ve just been too busy between looking after him, trying to sort out the house after the move, surfing the internet, completing all these goals… But I miss knitting! It’s very relaxing.

We’re going away for a week on Friday, I might take needles and some delicious coloured wools and start with something quick and easy. I’ll consider this goal finished when I actually finish a knitting project.
