Since completing my wrist warmers, I've felt brave enough to tackle the cabled baby blanket I started a couple weeks ago. Just a little bit at a time, and someday I will be done. Now I'm starting to see that it will be a long road, but not an impossible one! :-D
I've been knitting between work and a little during work (only when I could, so don't worry, I'm not slacking off) and I've been thinking about knitting for like a week and a half straight. I can't wait to get my 'secret summer pal' from the dishcloth exchange...that will be a great smaller task with purpose to break up the (let's face it) monotony of my baby blanket.
At least I'm not BORED with the blanket. The cabling and 'wild oat' pattern keep it interesting. Which is good, and bad. It's just enough that I have to pay attention while I'm knitting...not quite instinctive.
There is a bit of a flaw with her pattern, I think. She says it came out of a Reader's Digest, so I guess I'm not stunned. There are two lines that seem to have too many stitches, and one that I can definitely say is missing a section (5 whole stitches). Anyway, it's going to be WAY cute when I'm done. I hope Kristen and Abby enjoy it as much as I've enjoyed working on it.
...'enjoyed' now. 'Hated' a month from now. ;-)
