12-Steps

Dirty Knitters Anonymous-
12-Steps

1. I admit I am powerless over yarn—that my stash has become unmanageable.

2. I believe there is a Yarn Goddess greater than myself who can restore my sanity.

3. I have made a decision to turn my will and my life over to the care of completing my UFO’s.

4. I have made a searching and fearless inventory of my stash.

5. I have admitted to the Yarn Goddess, to myself, and to my fellow knitters the exact amount of yarn in my stash.

6. I am entirely ready to finish all my UFO’s.

7. I humbly asked the local thrift shop to remove all of the acrylic from my stash.

8. I made a list of all the projects I had harmed by not completing them, and became willing to make amends to them all.

9. Made direct amends to such UFO’s wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them (frogging).

10. I continued to take yarn inventory and when I found yarn I would never use, promptly donatated it.

11. I sought through prayer and meditation to improve my conscious contact with the Yarn Goddess, as I understood Her praying only for knowledge of Her will for me and the power to carry that out—finish or rip?

12. Having a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps, I will carry this message to dirty knitters everywhere, and I will practice these principles in all my knitting affairs.
