Long Overdue

While going through my yarn bins, an abandoned project caught my eye. Frankly, it’s caught my eye every time I’ve searched for a new project, but it hasn’t been worked on in years. Yesterday, it went in the frog pond! long neglected, improvised scarf You can tell by its rumpled appearance that it’s been stuffed in the bag far too long. It was an improvised pattern that didn’t spark my interest anymore. The yarn is pretty so it went back into the sock yarn bin. 

Fool Me Once . . .

Helen cowl started July 2017 - frogged December 2018 There's a good reason the cowl was not finished last summer - my stitch count kept getting messed up. Last week, I decided to finish this project. I knit the dark blue section and the stitch count is still not correct. No one on Ravelry reported a problem with the pattern, so I must be doing something wrong. It was too frustrating to finish, so I frogged the project. I found another pattern and began to knit. Oh yeah, see the problem at the bottom of the photo? Yep, I twisted the stitches. Soooo, another frogged project. Clearly this lace weight yarn does not want to become a cowl. It's going into a forced time-out.
