Something I will never see again. I've recently made a goal to just knit for the three of us. Everyone else can just learn to knit for themselves!!<br /><br />Happy Birthday!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2642892212205639461.post-88429660882143905742010-05-12T11:21:19.319-07:002010-05-12T11:21:19.319-07:00What a great post!

So many times I've been in waiting rooms knitting and others have given disapproving looks, stares, etc.<br /><br /> Or else they would tell me that they would love to have the luxury of time for knitting. While they sit there waiting next to me and doing nothing. Go figure.<br /><br />Now I just tell people what I believe- A creative outlet is a necessity for good health:)janethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09674219866233495307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2642892212205639461.post-86263962623547118132010-05-12T11:03:30.661-07:002010-05-12T11:03:30.661-07:00I have started always having a project that is for...I have started always having a project that is for others and one for me on the needles at once. This gives me a brake from one project to work on another but people don´t usually ask me to knit something for them. It´s usually me that is knitting for others because I love seeing my creations in use. And now that I have 2 little boys I even though I am knitting for them I do feel like I´m knitting for myself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12947909317770490465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2642892212205639461.post-66814589552211370702010-05-12T09:02:42.671-07:002010-05-12T09:02:42.671-07:00It sounds like you are at much the same place as m...It sounds like you are at much the same place as me! :) I love knitting for others, but lately, I've really wanted to knit for myself. So that when I accomplish something, I can enjoy it - every day if I want to!<br /><br />I haven't had many people ask me to knit for them, but a lot of my knitting is dedicated to gifts. <br /><br />I think it's something every knitter comes across and has to decide how they want to balance it! :) Good luck with any selfish knitting you do! :)Rae Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255670457484925517noreply@blogger.com
