ooo, squirmy squirmy reluctance to admit that you are sooooo right!
I think I shall have to take a moment (or maybe half a day) to do the stash-toss, sort out WIPs and UFOs and yarns and patterns that I’ve had for ages, and do myself some kind of list.
Ok, I know – the thing I’ve been wanting to do for ages? That I swatched and dreamed of? I’ll design that one. Just you watch me!

Reluctant to start? Dont’ even get me started on the things sitting in my Rav queue taunting me.

Your Icarus will be fab!

I was just thinking about Icarus as vacation knitting. I wish I had such a lovely yarn to work it in!

I have the same feelings you did towards the Clap!

At the top of my queue is the DNA Protopretty Shell. Ever since I saw it (now a couple of years) I have wanted to make one. I have had the yarn for it for over a year. I keep saying it will be the next thing to cast on, however something comes up: baby knitting, work, my sister’s wedding stuff, etc. I should just take your example and take the plunge, huh!?

I am kind of the same way. When I look at what’s hot, I have not knitted any of them. While I might like the pattern, I don’t like feeling like I’m doing it because everyone else is. Sometimes I wait until the popularity of a project wanes and MAY do it then.

wow, so glad to see you cast aside your fears and cast on Icarus! It’ll be lovely.

I have little mind battles over the popular things sometimes but obviously not enough to make me stop doing them. I don’t tend to ride the first crest – usually the later ones. And I think that the later crests are best!

I have the opposite issue. I cast on any/and everything I wish. Which means my UFO’s are outrageous. I’ll probably never finish anything because I see something new and cast it on right away.

Well, it’s absolutely beautiful!! :) I have projects that I’m reluctant to start, but it’s mostly because I have WIP/UFO guilt. :) That, and with training for the 3-day, I don’t have the brain capacity to handle any of the lace projects I want to start.
