Somehow I have managed to not work on my YoP projects for weeks! I had planned to finish some of my WIP's and then start on some new projects. This resulted in exactly not that. Bad. Bad, bad, bad me!
So what have I been doing? Well... other things! I tested this scarf crochet pattern. I made two fall wreaths and a fall bucket list...
Then I started on a new crochet jacket. It seemed so warm, comfy and cozy. So typically for fall and I just couldn't resist!
But what's the point of having a list if you keep being tempted by new ideas/projects?!
I really need some advice from you guys on how to stick to my YoP list! Maybe starting on the christmass presents on the list will give me a boost? Maybe treat myself with something nice when I finish a YoP project! Hmmm....
A lot of people have switched up their projects, or had more general projects. I think it is tough to set a years worth of patterns and never change it. I think the most important thing is to have fun making things and blogging about it - so switch it up if you have to (or add more projects if you dare lol)!
ReplyDeleteI had the same problem with my list and blogged about it on Sunday. The general consensus of opinion was that it didn't really matter if you changed your list as long as you enjoy what you're doing and blog about it. Have fun.
ReplyDeleteMarie and Dorothy, I'm so happy to hear that I'm not the only one! I'll probably add more projects and blog about it then! ;-)
ReplyDeleteAs Humpty Hump and Digital Underground used to wrap: "Do what you like..." I felt "locked in" at first at what patterns I was going to do but now I'm adding in littler projects b/c of my mood. Altho, I would like to still make those other projects. When the mood strikes...otherwise I'll just ride the wave relaxed as it's supposed to be fun.
ReplyDeleteI haven't joined YoP simply for the reason that I don't know what is going to inspire me or take my fancy in a month or six from now!
ReplyDeleteThere are no crochet police! make whatever you want whenever you want :D
Kepanie I have the same, sometimes the projects on my list just doesn't fit my mood! I love that you're riding the wave! ;-)
ReplyDeleteOmlair, I'm happy you still came by and dropped a message even though you haven't joined YoP! Thanks for your inspiring words! :D
