Brief Shimmer-related mental freak out

March 22nd, 2006 · No Comments · Works in Progress

So, I was doing great! I finished an entire repeat of the lozenge stitch, it was looking beautiful…only six more rows till I could add the sleeves! I thought I would read ahead and see how I was going to get those sleeves attached.

Suddenly, I thought I made a big mistake. I thought, “hmm…maybe I should have taken that ‘piquant’ rating a leeetle more seriously before I dove into it thinking I could knit whatever I wanted.” I just spent the last 20 minutes or so completely panicking that I would not be able to figure out how this was going to work…

…and suddenly the light dawned. It became clear! It was one of those cases where I had envisioned it entirely differently and I just had to break away from that image to understand what was going on. Whew!

Now I wish it were three hours earlier so that I wouldn’t have to go to bed now and I could jusitfy working on it for a while longer. Boo.

So, how about a picture?

The colours are patterning themselves interestingly! I think it’s going to look really cool! Please disregard the peek of horrible hotel bedspread. It’s not going to be in my life much longer, thankfully. Roll on Monday!
