Discretion vs Shameless Over Sharing
I’m struggling with a bit of a question. I’m trying to find the right balance with sharing things on this site. Now don’t worry, I’m not considering sharing the details of my digestion or my marriage or my finances. I am old enough (and possessed of a Victorian enough mindset) that I am not tempted to share those sorts of details with you. The things I’m talking about are all reassuringly knitting-related. They have to do with Book the Second.
It’s more or less taken over every free minute of my life (and more than a few minutes that really ought to have been devoted to other things) for the last few weeks. It likely will for many weeks (possibly months) to come. Things are well underway. Yarn has been arranged, swatches knit, patterns written, unusual props purchased, field trips planned, friends shamelessly enlisted to further the cause, and a variety of other unexpected activities undertaken. So the question is, do you guys care? Do you want to hear about the behind the scenes stuff, or is it like sausage…you like the end result but don’t want to know how it comes to be?
I’m fine either way. I can (likely) more or less keep my trap shut, at least until things are a bit further along. Or, I can (quite obviously) blab shamelessly. What do you guys think? Do you want to know, or is all that dreadfully boring?
Oh, I think that we should Be Told.
I want to be totally surprised when Book 2 is unveiled.
Share away as I am interested in the whole process…and the knitting.
Quite honestly, I just like hearing from You 🙂 It was really neat last time to hear about the process. By the way – do you need any test knitters? huh huh?
Yes we care! Love hearing the process…..& we get to encourage you along the way!
I agree with sharing. If it’s up to me – blab away!
I love hearing about your progress!
Just like knitting, the process is a major part of the finished product. Please share away.
I wanna know!
On the other hand, that kinda makes you a big tease!
I care! I’d love to know every detail. 🙂

I love the peeks, anticipation of what’s to come is part of the fun!
I want to know about the process – but then, process is fascinating to me. Between the names you use for patterns and the wide array of stitches that appear, I’m absolutely amazed at your mind and want to see the wheels turning…
I love it! blab away!
Need any more test knitters? 🙂
I don’t always comment, but I read your blog every day! I love to see what you’re up to…and the design/book process is very interesting to me!
I’m always up for shameless bragging and endless blogging about the whole process. But then, I’m a process kind of person.
Blab,blab,blab and blab some more…thats why were here isnt it? 😉
Definitely share! It’s an interesting process and always fun to hear what’s occurring.
I’d love to hear all the juicy details 🙂 Maybe one solution is to put spoilers after a jump in the post, so that people can decide whether or not to read it?
Also, I’d like to throw my name into the hat if you need any more testers.
Blab away – always love the back story!
Please do share . . .
