Lots of things changed, but nthing visible. I had thought I was leaving my job and guilt made me stay. So I'm back to finding new ways to cope because the old ways aren't working. As happens, my craft life is following my work life. I had a project done and I just didn't like it. Not even a little. So, I let it percolate and decided one Saturday to tear it apart and start again.
Sometimes you just have start over. Refine the craft, fix the stitch, get your head straight.
At work, it's find your place, zip your lip and get your stuff done.
This was the "finished" item. I didn't like how it laid out.
I just wasn't feelin it.
It became this and more.
Ten or twelve hours of knitting turned into two hours of destruction.
So unfair!
Prayer shawl end result.
(For part of it)
It's fluffy "yarn" and has little structure. Once you get past that, you can find it easier to deal. sometimes when you use the non-standard ingredient, you get a lesson in the limits of it.
But it was n clearance and I couldn't resist.
Hope you find something fun you can't resist today!
