Knitting Through The Years

I’m doing some major clutter clearing as I prep for my travels. One of the things I came across during my cleaning was a knitting project I must have started before college. This poor scarf has been in limbo for at least eight years! After adding a new row, I found a drawer to store it in. I got kind of a kick out of the idea of this scarf that will have years of work put into it by the time it’s complete. I also tend to knit very tightly, which got me thinking that if I add a row each year, it’s almost like a tree’s rings, for each new row, the degree of tightness will mark how stressed I was that year. Here’s to super loose knitting and stress-free years ahead!
