Out of chaos comes perfection
Dec. 1st, 2009 08:10 amWell, not in my life but I have hope. The Yarn Harlot had some really good perfection on perfect stitch by stitch socks out of self patterning yarn. They are perfect and if you read back in her blog a day or so you can see the chaos that comes with having a very old house in toronto.
I have hope that the chaos of my house, the fight of the valances and the crap at work will be worth it if something turns out perfect. I re-did the FIL's xmas hat since Mel felt it was a bit too small. I up-gauged one hook and the size is now perfect. I need to note that in my notes on ravelry. Its pretty interesting. Course I also wonder if I hook tight or not. Uncertain.
I finished the FIL's hat, gave
scribe_ari her hat...well, I had her try it on and seh wouldn't take it off...so she got it early and started in on another that I should finish tonight so I can start my mom's prezzy. Not sure how long that will take but I'm hoping to start it tomorrow and finish it by sunday so I have time to wash, block and dry it before I have to ship it. Shipping of gifts will now be coming up shortly and I hope I can get things out on time. Plus I still have a few more to make...le sigh. Oh, well, it will get done.
Just wish this pesky work thing wasn't in the way of my creative juices and my bike riding...course I still need to take the bike in after the mishaps of Sunday.
