The WIPs are piling up…
Instead of finishing things I appear to be starting new things.
Current WIP list:
– baby blanket
– child’s hat (awaiting pom pom)
– child’s mittens
– 2 x wrist warmers
– scarf (scarf-gate continues)
– Christmas stocking
– pullover
I get so excited about a new project and put everything into it until something else comes along. Concentration span of a gnat, sadly not the work ethic of an ant, so easily distracted!!! 🐜🐜🐜
WOOLLY WEDNESDAY 
It’s fun to have a variety of things to work on. But prioritise the ones that have a deadline. None of mine has a deadline, thankfully!!

Such wise words but sadly deadlines are quite fluid in my world 🤔

I know exactly how you feel. I am overwhelmed with the number of knitting and cross stitch projects I have going. So I am trying to be good and not start anymore – even though I have started a new crochet project. It is so hard to resist so many beautiful patterns and yarns and fabrics, isn’t it? I love your pile of projects 🙂

I only allow myself 4 working projects (one is always a hat and one is always a dishcloth for stress free knitting and easy to carry along), I have had 5 but that stresses the heck out of me. If I want to do a new one, I have to finish or rip one of the two remaining ones out, ripping rarely happens.I have had one sit in time out long enough that I had to rip it out tho’, a child’s sweater I had made some changes to and when I went back to it I couldn’t remember what changes I had made lol.

I’m afraid I don’t have your discipline 🤔
I have finished the child’s hat and mitts since my post in my defence!!!

hehe, it’s not discipline, it’s to keep my stress and anxiety down, which is what having to many open ended projects going does, much like being late to work or a doctors appt :P.

My pile is double that – oops! Quite agree, attention span of a gnat (at times!) though perhaps we could also so attitude of a worker bee ….. trying to ‘be’ positive !

I made a throw this year to work through one colour scheme of my stash, but I still have some colours left over. It’s a tricky balance, to have crafting supplies but not too many of them.

Your post is so relatable! I’m trying really hard to change this habit, but it’s difficult when new projects are calling my name. 😅
