I Have A Dream…

All it took was one visit to a yarn store and BAM!!! I’ve been jolted out of my “oh wow is me… I don’t have time for anything anymore… I’m so overwhelmed… I’m soooo tired” rut I was in. Now, don’t get me wrong… I AM exhausted! My little monkey still won’t sleep more than 3 hours in a row at night :)

But exhaustion aside, i feel completely invigorated and can’t wait to get going on all these fun things I want to do. Right now I need to focus on finishing my Xmas gifts. But once those are done, I want to start thinking about patterns and designing and spinning (still need to learn) and crafting.

Let’s call it my official 5 year plan. I’m trying to be realistic here, but hopefully I can get all this going much sooner :) Oh and it wasn’t just the trip to the yarn store that inspired me ;) Here’s a pic of
my side of the shared “art/craft” room (I have another craft room that is mine all mine too …. Lucky me!)

Now… In this pic you will see my knitting machine, sewing bust an my covered sewing machine. You see the baby gate? You know what would look awesome there??? A spinning wheel!!!! How cool would that be???

Le sigh….

So before I ramble too much… Because I will do that…. I’m going to list my 5 year plan :)

- learn to spin yarn
- learn to dye yarn
- create/sell my own knitting patterns
- have my own etsy store
- become more involved in my local knitting communities

Too ambitious? Maybe… But I have to try :)
