Thanks for the super relaxing video. Agressive knitting is so therapeutic, right? Tips: No strss over "mistakes" - they add character to the piece. Aaand, you'll be surprised how many knitting bloopers, like uneven stitches, disappear once you block an item! You can always do a little yarn embroidered emoti or ??? over any bigger things if they bother you . I love the raglan pattern that defines the sleeves...color so pretty also.❤🧶❤

Absolutely adore the idea of a hobonichi cousin for the ability of time blocking. But, trying to figure out the use of both the weekly and dailies without doubling up on time blocking or to do list. No journaling personally - more purely planning.

With the knitting 'mistakes', I’ve always looked at it this way - any imperfections just emphasise that it was handmade, which means there’s actual love and effort from the person who made it. Also, if you find it’s something that really bothers you, you could always looks in to crocheting. If you drop a stitch, it’s no big deal because only lives on the hook at a time. Likewise, if you see a mistake a few rows back, you can just frog it back to that point and do it again. (And yes, frogging is the technical term. 😂) I started off as a knitter, but then moved to primarily crocheting for these reasons, plus it’s portability without having to worry about stitches falling off needles. Love your work as always, Helen!

So happy to hear that you will be using the A6 as an extension to your Cousin. I originally purchased the A6 but then realized it's just too small for my day to day life being a SAHM so I had to get the Cousin for that part of my life lol. The A6 is strictly my personal journal and thoughts only...although sometimes I slip in a couple sentences about my kids lol. In this case, maybe work for you lol. I can not wait to see your notes and ideas for 2024 Helen, you are amazing and sooooooo talented!!! Although our lifestyle is different, I just want to say that you inspired me to get back into journaling and it has helped me so much :) sending hugs from Fresno, CA.

happy early birthday!! i love how you signed off - i sometimes feel like that after a busy day at my job (receptionist - unfortunately i can't just stop talking to people for 3 business days lol). i am going to need to order that van gogh washi! so pretty!! that washi swatch spread in your pocket bujo makes me think of the notebook i've dedicated to washi swatches - i bought it at dollar tree simply because i liked how it looked, didn't really have a plan on how to use it, and it's become my washi swatch book. it's so fun to flip through and see everything. don't worry about mistakes in your knitting, just proves you're human ;) as you continue to knit and do different stitches many hundreds of times you'll learn how things should "feel". and there will always be mistakes to be made. but that's how you learn and grow! i'm still loving that color combo and i can't wait to see the finished piece!

Your tabs are wonderful. (Random thought) The imperfections add character to your sweater. I like the two yarn shades. It will look lovely when you are finished. I don't knit, but my mother did. (And crochet) I grew up with all the knitting things around. Oh I imagined how you would look aggressive knitting. I might order an A6 for journaling as well. (Or use one of my empty notebooks) I sometimes fill the page in my cousin and want to write more. Since I bought a Spring start in the middle of May, I've been using the daily pages from April to journal more. That wont be an option if i contiue using the cousin and buy another Spring start. Thank you for sharing! Its interesting to see your process. ❤

Do you find it difficult to get the full benefits of journaling when you share everything publicly? It would seem like you'd have to withhold so much. Do you have a personal diary as well that you don't share?
@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo Жыл бұрын
Great question! Not really, mostly because these journal pages are more surface-level entries. They are mostly about my day-to-day life/thoughts, with some bits of deeper reflection sprinkled throughout. However, you are right that I do write my deeper thoughts elsewhere which I do not share! I do so digitally though, because they tend to long rambles where I want to get things done quickly, and I find more comfortable typing it out. Hope this made sense!
