It's really a good thing I didn't learn to knit until after my wedding. I'm thinking about that because we have a wedding to attend next weekend, held at the same location ours was, and it's June, so there are weddings popping up everywhere. I nearly drove myself insane planning our wedding as it was, and now I can imagine myself obsessing over each hand-knitted, felted and assembled decoration, favor and centerpiece. I shudder just thinking about it.

I think my main problem is that I suffer from some knitters' version of ADD, and flit from idea to idea almost as fast as I can think them up. A hat here, a bag there, ooh! let's start another sweater over here! Forget second-sock syndrome, I think I have second-pattern-repeat syndrome sometimes.

The goal of the week is to have manageable goals. (How's that for circular logic?) It's mid-June, and I'm paring down my list of Christmas must-knits as far as I can, but there are just still too many neat ideas and not enough time. Sweaters! Scarves! Felted slippers! People need hats! Recycled t-shirts knitted into reusable shopping bags! Needle felted Christmas ornaments!

I don't know where to start, so I'd better find somewhere to start.

And she's off...
