Part of it is me dithering because the moment I add all those strands across that ribbing, there’s really no going back, only forward whether I like how it’s coming out or not. And I’m very good at going, after the fact, oh–that’s how I should have done it.
But part of it is, I really do need that hazelnut brown for the tree trunks. Once I got all the other colors together they showed me they needed their best friend. (As in, no not that brown.) And it’s not here yet.
USPS has been telling me for several days that it would be delivered today. It was not. And since it’s to be in the foreground of the picture, I can’t just run off without it.
Unless I move that boulder over here, and those trees over there, and…
Nah. I’m just not that good an artist, no matter how much I want to be. I can riff from my friend Steve’s photo; I can’t make up a new photo in my head.
So hurry up, yarn. The world’s on fire and I need the distraction of creation.
This is the thing that I really want to do next. I just want to start. It’ll happen.

Yes the world is on fire, seems like everywhere.
I’ll cross my fingers for the yarn arrival.
I hate it when something is supposed to be delivered and then isn’t! So frustrating.
