And yes, this is it, this is the big one.
I am indebted to a friend at Knit Group who pointed out to me that if I finished it it would make a massive contribution to my stash reduction statistics. I don't know why this had not occurred to me myself, but it hadn't. But as it was undeniably true, and as I felt I could now face rectifying the mistake that had had me dropping it in the first place, I picked it up towards the end of November and finally finished it yesterday. And yes, the stats for February, unless I go unexpectedly mental will look very healthy.
Have to be honest I'm not loving it. Probably because I 'm not totally on board with the palette, and also of course because I can still see all the small imperfections in it which I will forget about as time goes on. And on the plus side it's very warm!
Oh, well done! That'll make a huge difference in the stats :)
ReplyDeleteWhat was the mistake that you rectified?
ReplyDeleteI discovered when I had almost finished one of the squares with cables that near the beginning of the square I had crossed one of the cables over the wrong way. I knew no-one would ever notice but me, but I don't have it in me, once I've seen a mistake to unsee it and leave it uncorrected. At the time I'd done about 5 squares in a row and couldn't face pulling out most of the cable-y one. I generally find it's easier to pull something out after some time has passed.
