Forgetting Sweaters

I keep forgetting to work on my husband’s secret sweater. I’ve been so focused on finishing the shawl that it doesn’t even dawn on me until after he’s home that I’m not any closer to done with it. To be honest, I’m a bit of a scatter brain, but I like to chalk it up to being a creative genius.

I’m almost back to where I was when I ripped it all out and am so much happier with this pattern. It is much more my husband’s style/personality. The rope cables are fun too and I’m thinking of using them for my sweater. I bought some beautiful wool yarn last year when this whole mess began that has been waiting for the perfect pattern. I want a pullover, but that’s all that’s firm. Everything else is a morphing vision in my head, mixing and matching different patterns and styles.

Thanks to this post, I remembered to work on it today and that tiny ball is now gone. Yay!
