I like to knit in the car because I have trouble with the fine work when it's a bit bumpy. Projects take as long as they take. I'm usually much more enamoured of the process rather than the finish. :-)Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13128106166012206494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-13395761624499066452015-08-10T20:54:17.654-04:002015-08-10T20:54:17.654-04:00I think everyone is overoptimistic about how much ...I think everyone is overoptimistic about how much time will be involved in stitching a project.

This past weekend, we had a three hour ferry ride (each way) and I stitched most of the that time. Unfortunately, I can't stitch (or read) in the car.<br /><br />I'm not good at estimating how long things will take Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04207344791348560569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-85458846496681867952015-08-10T16:26:08.846-04:002015-08-10T16:26:08.846-04:00I envy you being able to stitch in a car.
