If I was a good knitter...

If I was a good knitter (as in a good girl, not a skilled knitter):

• I would not be sitting freezing in my office with my winter coat over my shoulders because I would have knit a gorgeous alpaca shawl.
• I would not be rubbing my hands together every 10 minutes to warm them up because I would have finished that second fingerless glove I have languishing in my "to be completed" pile.
• I would not be so cold my nose is running, because I would have brought a lovely scarf with me to work.
• I would not be so freakin cold because I would have completed a lovely cardigan sweater that I could leave at the office for overly AC'd days.

But since I'm not a good knitter:

• I haven't picked up the needles since before the holidays.
• I have designs on knitting gifts that never get started.
• I start gifts that never get finished.
• I am cold.

So there you have it.
