Yarn Along - Accomplishments for this week


It took me a while to realize
that I was binding off incorrectly.
I was forgetting the knit two stitches
at the very beginning!
So the top picture is a long yarn needle
holding my dish cloth together after
I frogged it.

It took me a while...

But here it is,
humble and imperfect and finished.
And it's a dish cloth so
I am OK with how it turned out.

I mean to make a pair of dish cloths
but before I knew it
(and Mr. Husband asked,
isn't that a bit long for a dish cloth?)
I was knitting a dish towel :)
The tread at the bottom is where I had to
start a new skein of yarn.
 
Something I like about
Ginny's yarn alongs
are that they include what one is reading.
I finished re-reading L'Engle's
a wind in the door
last night.

It is a lovely book.
I find it reassuring at times to read about
a clear picture of goodness and of evil
and seeing goodness praised and encouraged.
Not to mention humility,
love for the other
and allusions to God.

  1. Well you can always use a dishcloth and better too big than too small right?
    I've never heard of your book but I'll have to add it to my list-it looks like a good one!
