I’ve been very delinquent in my crafting posts (my crafty sis has been on holidays for 2 weeks and just gave me a kick in the butt).
I’ve hardly done any crafting in the past few weeks, with the exception of a little bit of knitting on my secret knitting project. I don’t have the results to show though, since I had to rip out about 3+ hours of knitting the other day once I noticed a mistake that was done 3+ hours before. I don’t think I will ever learn.
I am really bad about not checking my knitting regularly. This is how it goes. I knit happily along and sometimes I try to multi task (e.g. knit while I’m watching a movie) and then every once in a while I’ll spread out my knitting and see if I can spot a mistake. Inevitably I do and it’s usually several inches down in my work. G-r-r-r-r! (Grandma Elsie used to make the cutest G-r-r-r-r sound, rolling her r’s, when she was frustrated about something. I’m pretty sure she’d use a G-r-r-r-r sound for a knitting mistake.) At this point, I rip down my knitting to fix the mistake.
So, progress is slow. Here’s a cryptic photo of my secret knitting project.
I’m not showing too much because the project still has to be a secret. And it’ll probably be a secret for a few more weeks at the rate that I’m knitting. I’ve got to find ways to fit more knitting in.
