Why??

One day I swear that my life will be perfect. I will wake up on time and casually get in the shower to start my day. I will have so much time that I will be able to take my radio in the bathroom and listen to the NPR news while I prepare for the day. I will then go out to the dining room and eat a healthy and relaxing breakfast consisting of fruit, granola, milk, and decaf coffee and then slowly saunter out to the car. My day will continue on at this blissful pace until I can come home at the end of the day, sit down with a cup of tea, and knit the one project I am working on. I will not have numerous projects in waiting because I will finish something before I start a new project.

To give you an idea of how I am doing with this, check out the following.

Here is the baby blanket I started when I got sick of the never ending afghan:





The afghan I started when I wanted a change from the baby blanket (I think it looks like what old 1970s curtains would throw up if they had GI tracts):




Here is the first granny square of yet another afghan I started when I was sick with the aforementioned two:



And finally, here is the scarf yarn I bought (and proceeded to knit) when I finished the other scarf I started to avoid the afghans:




Oh well, maybe I should try a sweater...

Scarf

I have quite a few works in progress at this point. I decided to make this scarf in a single rib because I wanted it to be as soft as possible. It's the first time I'm knitting with non-acrylics. This is a baby alpaca that I got from a quilting fair a few weeks ago. I'm not so crazy about the colors, I wish I would have gotten the deep red, but overall, I still love it.
