Getting Organised


Read this article by Kathleen from Knitting Daily and realised that I too am guilty of being disorganised. I could relate to the stuff in her notions bag before organising it...the nailclipper, the paperclip, the receipt, the lost knitting needle, etc...all forgotten stuff that's left in a bag.

"Making Time for Knitting: Organization and Inspiration

Carving out time for knitting has never been a problem for me, until now. I used to knit every evening for two or three hours while watching TV or listening to books on tape (and in between changing loads of laundry).

With my new position here at Knitting Daily and the classes I teach at my LYS, I think about knitting all the time, but I find I'm having trouble finding the time to actually knit! I guess it all comes down to time-management, right? And priorities...

Organization and Inspiration

I decided that the keys to getting my knitting time back are organization and inspiration.

First the organization part. I spent a couple of hours organizing my projects last week, and I ended up with two projects that floated to the top in "I-must-finish-this-before-I-start-something- new" land. I put each of those projects, with all of their accoutrements, in their own zip-up project bag and put them in my fab Kate Walker knitting tote. I carry my tote with me everywhere, and now I can pull one of those projects out whenever I have a moment of downtime.


I also organized and restocked my notions bag, which was a sad state of affairs. Here's what was in there:
-various ends of yarn all tangled together with stitch markers and a paperclip
-nail clippers that I've been using as scissors (they've never been used for their true purpose, only for clipping yarn)
-a dried-up pen
-a receipt with a list of patterns for "the next project"
-a size 13 double pointed needle (no idea why...)
-a paper tape measure from Ikea
-a packet of stitch markers (all types in one packet)


Here's what's in my notions bag now:
-stitch markers, each type in their own little plastic envelope
-scissors
-a real tape measure
-a set of cable needles
-two crochet hooks (a size D for fixing mistakes on small gauge projects and a size G for bigger gauge projects)
-a pen that works
-a little tablet of paper
-two types of row counters (the clicker kind and the kind that fit on circular needles)"

There is it. Looks like it is time for me to get organised as well. I have got bags and bags of yarn and incomplete projects and other crafty stuff all in a pile. Plus loads of books in every corner of the room. Oh boy...it is going to take me more than the couple of hours it took Kathleen to get herself organised. Mine's probably going to take a couple of months??

Shall just look forward to the result of being more productive and reducing the pile of incomplete projects and putting all the balls of loose yarn to a good cause. :)
