When I get really stressed, I try to calm down to a point that I can do some knitting. You can't knit when you are "really" stressed because all you will be doing is "tink-ing". Unknitting, knit spelled backwards is tink, which is no fun at all & will only make you more stressed. So, you are defeating the purpose. I usually have 4-5 things on my needles at once to keep things interesting. My #4 daughter, (Patty), is due to have a baby any day now. I made a baby sweater in baby blue with airplane buttons (because "daddy" likes airplanes), & a cabled hat in the same yarn to match. I found a bib with the exact color airplane as the buttons I put on the sweater. What are the chances of that happening again? I gave the set to her already & hope that I can get a pic of it so I can put it on here for all of you to see.
I am making a blanket to go with the baby's set. I also started a white set & blanket for the baby's christening. All this and I'm thinking about everything I have to make for Christmas gifts. A ton of things! Of course, everyone wants me to make things for them to give their friends, teachers, extended families, etc. I better get busy with "my list"!
