After several weeks of frustrating knitting, I finally realized something. I don't have to work on something that I am not enjoying knitting. I don't have to struggle through each stitch wishing it was finished so I could move on to something else. I don't have to knit round after round; all the time worrying if the intended recipient is even going to like or appreciate it.
I do have quite a number of projects that I am working on. Some of them I am making just because I fell in love with the pattern or the yarn. Some of them are from various classes that I have taken and haven't finished the project yet. Some of them are for me, but a number of them are intended as gifts. I have to admit that some of those gifts don't even have intended recipients yet. I just think they would make a nice gift. Someday.
Because of my epiphany - I am putting away the pink tank top that I have started at least 4 times. I am going to work on some of the other projects I have on the needles. Or maybe I will start another project. I am going to knit something that is more enjoyable.
It's all up to me. And it is okay.
