Doldrums

By @kimmac2/26/2019needleworkmonday

Today, I brought my sweater to the gallery to be juried. Even though it was basically finished a month ago, I left small things to wrap up and postponed some final decisions until a few days ago. It kind of jammed up the project flow, so now that it's gone, I can begin thinking about another project.

I'm thinking small and easy. I still have 350 grams of the wool from the sweater left, so perhaps I'll knit arm warmers using the motifs of the sweater I just made. Or a pillow?

I also have some yarn that I recently bought at the thrift store that I could use for socks.

I just need a small, quiet project to get me going again.

I don't understand why the sweater threw me into the doldrums, but here I am, and I'll get out very soon.

I decided not to add closures. I just blocked the front band a little. So glad I don't have to mull over it anymore!

Probably leaving those loose ends for a month created this malaise.
