Knitters block is like writers block. Knitters need inspiration sometimes too; these ideas should help knitters move forward.

It’s easy to be lazy when you lack inspiration, so here’s my attempt at something more poetic than a list.

Yarn inspires the timid, the tired, and the flustered; yarn is about colors, colorways, guage (as in, after knitting a sweater with a fine yarn, worsted can be inspirational); having “a stash” - buying yarn when you have money means having yarn when the money runs dry; texture, pure sensual pleasure, and drape, the luscious body-clingingness of everything yarny combined to perfection.
