Oh, Procrastination.

That's the problem with knitting. It's productive procrastination. Why read a book that has nothing to do with knitting when one can finish a bag?

Why do laundry when you can catch up on the sleep lost last night while knitting?

Why listen to a boring lecture about libel when you can plan out your knitting olympic challenge?

Why even go to school?

Ah yes. To prepare for a career which will allow for the means to knit.
