Knitters, what's the longest you've ever left a project and eventually finished it?

I was knitting a gorgeous [to me] basket weave sweater in 6 colors. I don’t remember why I stopped, but when I picked it up again I had no clue what row I left at. This is 15 or more years ago, but I keep it! Someday I’ll start knitting the front and be able to tell. I have 3 sweaters on the go now, had to wash the half -done cream colored one because it was filthy from dust! bad, bad, bad

I have not yet finished the unfinished projects I have. Usually they get put aside because I came to a part of the instructions I didn’t understand, ran out of yarn, or found something else I would rather do.

I knit houseshoes, it’s the ONLY thing I know how to make. I started a pair back in Sept. set it down and didn’t pick it up till Dec. to finish it.

Years and years and still counting.

Also, when my grandma died, I inherited her half-knitted stuff. That’s what I need, right? More of them.

I started knitting a scarf a few years ago and have decided it’s time to finish it.
Not knitting, but I started sewing a maternity dress when I was pregnant in 1973 and haven’t finished it yet. But, my son is now 36 so I guess I can forget about it now!! :)

I started a quilt for my son while pregnant as well:D I finally threw it out a couple of years ago. I’d been telling myself I’d finish it for freinds’ babies. My son is soon 29.

@faye I guess we meant well! My first grandchild was born in August .. I should have finished that dress for my daughter-in-law. Vintage maternity wear!! :)
