Project monogamy

When I first started this blog, I wrote about project ADD, more commonly known as startitis. I once has 20 WIPs going - that was simply insane.

Now it seems I've gone in the other direction. I can't seem to do anything but get Rob's mom's Christmas blanket finished. And it being a blanket, it's not exactly an instant gratification project. And there is a non-negotiable deadline: December 24th.

I'm almost done with one of three 5-foot long strips that need to be sewn together, then crocheted around the edges for a border. As you can see, it's quite the colorful project, reminiscent of a Mexican serape. I hope it's not too gaudy for my mother-in-law!

I think I'm doing this because it's simple mindless knitting, and it's relatively fast. There's something to be said for doing one knitting bit at at time.
