Trying to power through two WIPs that been haunting me The red shawl only has two dozen ish more rows and the blue shawl only needs about 6 more pattern repeats. I want to start more interesting long term projects but would feel bad about leaving these two unfinished when they’re both less than 10 hours away from being off the needles.

#knitting #knitblr #lace #lace rot #wip #pretend it's wip wednesday and not random tuesday staring at my pile of half finished scarves #the other two wips rn are both straight stockinette so i can knit them while reading #but the blue scarf obv can't with how much lace #and while i did swap to knitting garter in the red shawl (because i was slowly going insane doing the eyelet patterns)#it's VERY loosely plied yarn and super splitty even when i'm paying full attention #if i tried to knit it without looking it would be a Hot Mess in less than three full rows. gotta keep my eye on it.#i've been having a Mental Illness Moment and have been fully on board with doing One thing at a time recently #for several weeks it was a multiplayer game that will not be named. but i loss interest in playing that and it's been on knitting for #over two weeks now? feels like longer than that. the brain wolves have me.#after these are finished i think i'm going to start a brioche shawl that has been begging me to create it for several months now #and probably cast on a super complex lace shawl that i've had planned but haven't started specifically because of these two shawls #I might also take a break for a doily or two and my brain is caught on knitting a market bag despite the fact i won't use it
