HEAT...THE SECOND

Then followed that beautiful season... Summer....
Filled was the air with a dreamy and magical light; and the landscape
Lay as if new created in all the freshness of childhood.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
 

 

 

 

 

I had been knitting constantly

trying to finish my Heat. There

was a mistake in the triangle,

but I decided to ignore it, although

every time I looked my eyes

were drawn to it. I was knitting

the border, almost done with

the first of three repeats when

I made another mistake in my

counting, so in a 2:00 a.m. knitting

session I decided to rip back the

whole border and start over. After

I ripped out the border I wasn't

really happy with how loose the

side stitches were so the only

thing to do was to rip out the rest

of it and start completely over.

 

Truthfully I am happy that I

started over, there are no mistakes,

{so far}, and I have had lots of

knitting in my days and nights

and that is never a bad thing.

 

I am reading Desilu, the story

of one of my favorite television

couples. The book is okay, just

a little too much producer talk

about money and contracts for

my taste. I think I might have

been happier reading this, maybe

next time.
