WIP Wednesday

Even with all my reading, I've been making some progress on my WIPs, at least the one's I've been upfront about.

Banff is on sleeve island where I'm enjoying little umbrella drinks no end.  I'm thinking this will be ready to wear at Thanksgiving, though a bit on the informal side even for my casual living family.  Heck, who cares, I'll wear it anyway.

I'd also show you an updated picture of my KSH Victorian Lace Rectangle, but it's in time out.  I was ready to execute the first corner of the border and made a nearly fatal mistake -- I carried it around with me.  Since the border knitting is on DPNs, it was to be expected that they would slide out and I would lose my stitches.  Since I'm knitting this in Kidsilk Night frogging it to get everything back in shape is a nightmare.  I'd say it's even more of a nightmare given the little bit of lurex that is used to create the sparkle.  I'm hopeful that a dedicated hour tomorrow will put things back on track...

If you're keeping track, no I didn't finish it in time for E to wear to a bar mitzvah -- she was philosophical about the situation and a substitute was procured to insure she violated now religious prescriptions or social boundaries.

As to expectations on due dates, just pretend there's the same amount of certainty attached to this project as there is to furniture delivery dates.

Oh, no - good luck with the lace rectangle recovery!
