Another thrum bites the dust . . .


Thrummed Mittens pair 3 goes into the FO pile, the fleece for Thrummed Mittens pair 4 is selected and awaiting the dreaded thrum-making process. You'll notice, that with DancingDiva's consent, a loop and knotted button were added to facilitate mitten maintenance and retrieval. Wasn't the color a dead-on match, too?

In the meanwhile, I'm getting some whimpery whiny indications from the ol' knitting bag that a certain relationship is being neglected. In an attempt to avoid a written communique, expressing said discontent, I've made a sincere promise to devote any available knitting time this weekend to reaffirming our commitment to one another.

With heart-wrenching honesty and sincerity, I've reiterated over and over again that those other projects meant nothing to me. They were meaningless, just ships passing in the night. My heart and hands belong to Dickinson, now and forever until it is finished.

Think Dickinson believes me?

Some knitting is kneedy. This is why we stray. Perhaps the knitting needs to look at its own clingy behavior and realize that relationships are a two-way street. A healthy relationship is one where the knitter is able to befriend others. What we learn from these other experiences only enhances the original relationship. A trusting partnership is a healthy one.

I'm like Dr. Phil for knitted items...
