No, because I'm not a masochist. I consider hobbies to be a method of relieving pressure. Adding spreadsheets and statistics instead seems to add to the pressure of meeting targets and promoting growth. Gotta get those numbers up!
If spreadsheets relax you, then knitting likely isn't the actual hobby that gives you joy.
This is just an opinion. If I'm wrong, then that's great and I'm happy it's working out for you. Keep at it.
Hah, don't worry I don't do this for everything! But I need this one finished by a certain date, and having the hard numbers is very motivational :D
