When I post a project on Ravelry Iβll always note if itβs a βstashbusterβ so I can feel better about using it up. Currently on a yarn diet but often failing π§Ά π§Ά

Zuckerberg would do this. Just read βCareless Peopleβ - he sold out the data of users in Hong along to the Chinese govt. Yeah, heβd do this in a handshake

I often have a few on the go: one for TV-watching, one thatβs more challenging, and then another because I like it. Then I donβt finish one - and start another. And so it goes π€£
I did pull out one that was in time-out for maybe two years? Took a different approach to it, finished it and love it now
I have wa-a-a-y more than that! π€£
