I darned my first sock!
Nov. 5th, 2014 02:29 pmI realize that this might not be very exciting, but I am pretty pleased that I managed to
1) save my new purple alpaca socks (alpaca being one of the few wools which I am not allergic to at this point), and
2) squelching my "but my sewing isn't perfect" anxiety. Seriously, how many people are going to be looking at the inside seam of my sock?
Sometimes the inner-critic monster is so over-reaching that he just looks ludicrous. It's like one of those B horror movies that totally terrified you as a kid, and then you see it years later and are just baffled about what seemed so scary before.
Also, I like picturing my inner critic-monster as a guy in a cheap rubber suit with an obvious zipper.
