Hi, enjoyed your video...as far as not getting overwhelmed, if i have several projects at one time, i try to at least make them different projects, like socks, a sweater, a hat....this way i have a project for every mood! hope that helps! 😀

Thanks! I do think diversifying my projects will help.

Hi I just watched your video for the first time. Regarding the wips, try having a goal for each one either in a time or number of rows per day for the ones you need to get through... I have never had a deadline except for test knits but I find it helpful to plan say 8 rows a day of a large lace shawl or half an hour on a sock something to distribute the time across wips to avoid any languishing reaching or exceeding a goal can make it exciting rather than stressful. I hope this helps Best of luck

That’s a great strategy, I will definitely try that!

I tend to only have one project going at a time. Occasionally I’ll have a second but any more than that I start to feel stressed lol. I currently have four and it’s stressing me out. I spend more time thinking about what I should work on than I do knitting.

Oh, I know that feeling, I definitely have to make choices each day!

I wish I was a monogamous knitter but my brain is a hamster who got off the wheel and won't stop.

I’m definitely feeling like a crazed hamster trying to get all these wips done this month. I will be happy to go back to my monogamous nature 😜
