Thoughts

I went downhill again yesterday. Long story short, I lost my temper at the cats, then instead of just sitting there and staring at the wall and being numb (okay, I did that for a little bit), I forced myself to knit. I got another row done on the sideways sock before realizing it'd be easier if I just started over (I'll explain this in a post later today), then worked on a wine cozy (it's another Christmas present).

And I felt a little better. Not just because I was knitting, but because I was knitting for someone else.

And that got me to thinking. I haven't really found my knitting niche yet, except that I tend to gravitate towards things that don't take too much yarn, like hats and scarves and cozies. But maybe my niche is meant to be charity knitting. Y'know, like knitting chemo caps and donating them to hospitals. Just thinking about doing that, about helping someone else in need, made me feel so much better.

...I think that's all I have to say on that subject right now. I didn't realize it'd been so long since the last time I posted, though... I have some pictures, I just need to organize them, and I'll update in a little while. Should probably do a bit of cleaning first, though.
