What on earth happened to October? Seriously, I must have lost a fortnight somewhere. I’d blame the new job, but I’m enjoying it too much to start laying blame on it already. It’s so nice to discover that existential dread isn’t actually a standard part of Sunday afternoon/evenings…
Anyway, I want to say “on to craft talk”, but there really isn’t much to talk about for this month. I did finish Changing Staircases and it’s kept me warm a few times.
And I made some progress with my baby Flax Light, but then stalled with re-doing the same 10 rounds over and over to fix mistakes.
And that’s it. I’ve no idea what I’ve been doing for the last 31 days, but apparently it wasn’t making things!
Things never slow down in the run up to Christmas, so I’m setting more of a process goal for November rather than a results goal: I will do some form of crafting every day for the next 30 days. Even if it’s just one stitch or sticking a peel-off on one card, I will do something.
Today’s crafting was some knitting on the way to and from work so that’s day one – done!

I think many will empathise! I don’t seem to be achieving many things on my to do list either and the “busy” craft time of year is now upon me!

It might be time to set aside a big chunk of weekend just for crafting, so I can at least START to feel ready for Christmas!

Beautiful makes! I read somewhere that there are only 8 Saturdays until Christmas…I was like STOP IT I’M NOT READY. I think your goal of doing something every day is a good one.

That shawl looks so lovely Hannah ❤ I think a process goal seems super reasonable, somehow the days have seemed to finish way too fast lately

I’m hoping things might slow down a little bit now I’m more settled into my job, but we’ll see!

Starting a new job is always an adjustment isn’t it? I’ve been working as a casual since having Clark at University and that went really well but I’m about to start a summer job during our uni holidays and I hope I adjust quickly!
