Dory’s “just keep swimming” mantra from Finding Nemo is this generation’s version of The Little Engine That Could’s “I think I can, I think I can,” and is no less inspiring. On those days when you need a little extra motivation, turn on a favorite TV show, pick up your needles and create a great little project.

Just Keep Swimming is great for Fair Isle newbies, as there are only two colors, and no long floats to catch.
