Anyone else make spreadsheets for their projects?

Started a shawl in late January, and it needs to be finished by July. Which, for most people I'm sure that's nothing but I am a very slow knitter, really!
The pattern is lacy and complicated and mistakes will be really visible, so it's no good to work on while watching TV or doing anything else and I'd just not been putting time aside to properly concentrate on it.
The solution: A spreadsheet to keep track of how far behind I am, and a graph so I can watch myself (hopefully) catch up.
There are very few problems in life that can't at least be a bit improved with a spreadsheet, and I reckon that applies to knitting just the same 🤓
I am also a slow knitter!
I agree and that sentence makes me happy.
Although, when I first clicked I did not think this was going to be a progress tracker. Figured it would be maybe a personal project log, tracking start and end date, how much fun you had doing it, personal notes, etc. Or using the cells to make a knitting chart (the visual patterns).
