I’m not sure what the deal is but I still haven’t started my cotton tank. Is it because it’s a garment? That feels overwhelming and I’m nervous to take that on. I desperately want to have items in my wardrobe that I’ve knit myself but I’m just not sure I’m a garment knitter. I know there’s nothing wrong with that but I can’t wear all the wraps, cowls, hats, and scarves that I knit. My mom complemented a scarf and I was automatically ready to give it away just for it to have somewhere it’ll get worn more frequently than I can cycle through them all.

All that said, I’ve been working on my advent yarn wrap. It’s lovely to have picked it back up again. The yarn is wonderful and it’s fun to slowly watch the colors transition. I’m still in the pinks but we’re going to a dark blue (almost black) by the end.

If you look closely you’ll see that I’m using one of my new stitch markers. Someone commented that I will use them and the shocking price tag will be worth it. They’re absolutely right. I did change out the ring for a small lobster clasp so I can hook it to the yarn rather than having it over the needle. Easy adjustment. I even had one in the right color.
