And after 6 skeins and I don't know how many hours, I put it together and slipped it over my head and it looks... awful! It was so discouraging, I haven't had the energy to finish the collar :(.

I...I have totally the same reaction to knitting. I've made one sweater - which I wear around the house like a sweatshirt because while it looks like a sweater and it's super-comfy, it doesn't actually look that good on me. I don't have any designs dancing in my head. But I do wish I had more time to do nothing but knit, so I could do the fancy patterns I drool over, and I totally envy people who knit/write knitting patterns for living!<br /><br />Of course, if I had to do it to make a living, I'm not sure I'd enjoy it so much. But I'm still envious. :-PNew Kid on the Hallwayhttp://newkidonthehallway.typepad.comnoreply@blogger.com
