Post Holiday Knitting Sweet Spot - Yes ME time!

What is on your needles right now?  Hopefully you are not still rushing through a gift to be delivered late. 

As with most knitters I know, after months of agonizing over what to knit for gifts, wondering whether or not they will like it, then the last minute knitathon that leaves you wondering if your fingers will ever uncurl; arrives that sweet spot in the year when you can go through your stash and actually wonder what project you want to make for yourself.

Perhaps the yarn beckoning you is that lovely alpaca lace weight you picked up at the show 2 years ago, or that amazing hand painted sock yarn you bought on that summer road trip with the girls!  What ever it is, yes, go ahead, pluck it out of your stash and cast on.  Enjoy knitting every yard at a leisurely pace, feel the texture as it slips through your fingers, look at amazement of the depth of the shades in that hand painted yarn as your socks begin to spring off the needles.

And enjoy every moment, because you deserve it!
