Can you relate? I have millions of ideas but afraid to start..
Balls of yarn..check, new needles..check, ideas..check. So why can’t you start?? Fear! Fear of it not looking right. Yes..
What should you do? Dive in and just get going already..but I’m frozen.
Learning to love your own work is also good.. and not to expect perfect perfect because it takes thousand years.. at least in my case.. relax and have fun….

Just do it. If it looks to bad to you then you can just frog it (pull it all apart) and start over. I have a ball of acrylic I have used to test patterns for years and it still works great.

I just jump right in – the worst that can happen is you pull it apart and find another project to do. Some of my best work actually started with messing up on a pattern. You can do it!! 🙂

Fear takes the fun out of your hobby. Throw away the fear. The worst that can happen is that you mess it up and have to undo it and start over. Nothing wrong with that. You will learn something from that. If you mess it up and have to undo it and you dread starting over, work on something else for a while and return to it. I’ve done this many times. In the end, you’ll complete the project successfully if you really want the end result. If you discover you don’t want it so much, no big deal, either.

I know how you feel! I think my biggest hangup is deciding on what yarn and what color I want to use. I’m glad when patterns give you that info! 😉
