I went up to my craft room yesterday after snapping a few pictures for my newest listing, and decided to take a picture of a dirty little secret of mine.

So?, you might ask, 'It's a pile of remarkably well knit artisan tabi socks! What's so dirty about that?'  Well, if you look a bit closer, you'll see bits of yarn hanging from the socks.  Some of these socks have been listed in my shop for months, and I still haven't gotten around to weaving in the ends!

So that's my secret.  I hate finishing my socks.  As much as I love to knit them, weaving in the ends is a torment.  Something takes over my brain right as I'm finishing a pair that says 'Hey! here's another idea for some more socks!  If you start that pair, you won't need to weave in the ends on this pair!'

The only problem with that is, almost always, a pair will sell before I get around to finishing it, and I have to sit down at midnight to weave them in to get them out in the mail the following morning.  It should be the slow season for knitting, but I hope airing these dirty little secrets will give me enough accountability to take action.

I'm imagining knitting away all summer and having to weave in the ends of my entire inventory as winter orders start coming in.  AAAGH!
