My NaNo is more of a KnitMo
Nov. 2nd, 2011 11:14 amHooray! It's National Novel-Writing Month! This means that practically everyone on my friends list is head-down inside their word processors/Gdocs and I'm getting lots of "here's how much I did today" posts. This is AWESOME! I adore people who want to be productive and actually set-to and try to hit a goal. Even if some might not make the goal, they did stuff and that's the whole point of the thing.
Me? I'm not gonna write.
For one, I've only ever had one story in my head for the past ... oh... eight years or so, and I can't seem to pin the boys down well enough to do them any sort of justice. For two, I really like getting lost in other peoples' works instead of my own. For three, there's Christmas coming up soon.
So! For November, I'm going to be making ... hm. Let's say twelve. Twelve pairs of fingerless gloves. That's four-fifths of a glove every day, three pairs a week. (I will try to post pictures when I'm done, but I haven't figured out that whole "sizing" thing and I am terrified of scaring everyone off. Anyone wanna walk me through it?)
*stretches fingers, sets-to!*
