Do not ask me what my new years resolutions are. I do not make resolutions. I do not do introspection and self-evaluation. I prefer to avoid any serious or deep thought about the realities of my life, the things I may not be happy with, or things I may want to change. It's like a mistake in knitting: don't look at it too closely because you may unintentionally pick at the wrong loop and before you know it the entire thing (a blanket, say) has unraveled in a flash, becoming a useless pile of thread with no discernible loops or stitches remaining. What was an identifiable, seemingly substantial, tangible item has simply vanished, ceased to exist at all.
So I will not pick at, discuss, or even think about any loose threads. I will not make any resolutions. I have learned my lesson.
I hope you have a happy and healthy 2009. I love your writing, Sarah, and I'm grateful to have discovered your blog in 2008.
ReplyDeleteAll the best.
So are you starting over with the blanket?
ReplyDeleteI think starting over is the best answer. As long as I can remember how to cast on! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the kind words, Mike.
