I am fully obsessed with working on my handspun pi shawl, which is a problem, since I really, really want to finish up my sweater. Solution? I’ve made a reward system out of it. Knit a round of my sweater yoke, spend a few (okay, several) minutes on the shawl. (exception: I don’t have to earn time knitting on the shawl while out-and-about – the shawl makes much better on-the-go knitting than the sweater does).

Is it sad that I have to make these kinds of deals with myself? Perhaps. But whatever works, right? Plus, knitting as a reward for knitting? YES, PLEASE.
