Do you have any unfinished projects hanging around the house?
Do you finish all the projects you start or do they suffer delays or are abandoned midway?
That I do, particularly crochet projects.
Crochet is fun and all but they are a serious time-sucker. I can say “one more row” or “one more round” about a dozen times before noticing the number of hours has gone by and I haven’t moved from my chair.
I bought a book at the end of last year, hoping to occupy my holidays with crochet projects since I cannot exactly garden when the sun is shining for less than 10 hours a day. Not much grows when there are only 9-and-a-half hours of sunlight. I bought this book with patterns for crochet blankets, in which blankets are crocheted in pieces before stitching them together into one big blanket.
To be honest, I have lots of blankets, more than I’ll probably need in a lifetime and I only ever use blankets during the winter when I’m watching TV in the freezing cold living room. I like making blankets because it’s mindless and straightforward. I ended up finishing 2 strips and have been wanting to start the third strip but haven’t found the time.
It’s hard to find time these days, particularly with my aunt around and a garden to take care of. Hopefully, I’ll pick it up again this winter.
This is Another Story 
Thanks for sharing Yinglan. It’s a marvel that you do so much with a full time job too. I wish I had the dedication to knit or crochet too.

For some reason, I like to keep my hands busy. Sitting around makes me bored and tired.

I think it’s good C to be busy with something you like doing.

I think we have the same point of view, I also do not waist my time and making myself busy. Sewing, crochet, knitting, drawing. Always 2-4 projects at the same time.

We should do have the same point of view. Even writing projects, I have several going on as my brain shifts from one story to another.

I did write short mystical stories before, just now I do not have so much time and no more laptop. Good that I have saved it on hard drive. To be honest I do some photography as well. I cannot help myself, I love art in any way.

I do have a few unfinished crochet and knit projects. I have a small business making and selling handmade items so I try to finish most of what I start to maximize my profits. But you are right! There is simply not enough time. I would love to have some more drawing time.

I start way more than I finish although some do get completed.
