» Tangled up in WIPs

I have always been more of a process knitter than a project knitter. It’s rather in keeping with my whole “jack of all trades” personality and rampant bouts of ADD. I’m far too easily distracted by the coolest new yarn, or the loveliest new colorway, or the gorgeous new pattern, and once I’m [...]
