I must admit, I haven't done much on my shawl this week. I'm on the border, so technically it's nearly done, but the border rows are just so long *laughs*
At least the green wedges had some interest from the wrap and turns, and the sense of achievement at finishing them. Now I find I am lacking the motivation to pick it up and just get it done!
I've probably done about a fifth of the border, and it's at a stage where it's very much "so close and yet so far". I know I'll finish it, and relatively soon, but I'm not forcing myself to pick it up. I'll do a row and then work on something else for a bit. I love the way the shawl is looking, so I don't want to end up resenting it *laughs*
This of course means that I am going to be way behind the others in the knitalong, some of whom have already finished, but hey, it's supposed to be fun, right?!
Your shawl looks great! You've got to get it done so your can wear it:)
ReplyDeleteI completely understand what you mean about being so close but so far. You will finish it when you finish it, not before. It will be totally worth it too when you produce such a beautiful shawl!
ReplyDeleteagreed, shawl borders seem to take a ridiculously long time. How exciting that its nearly finished though
ReplyDeleteEh. Do what makes you happy. I love your color choices, and I'm sure you'll finish up with you are ready. Looks like a great pattern!
ReplyDeleteI get that way when I am finishing up big stuff too. You will get it eventually, so don't worry. I still love your colors.
ReplyDeleteI would much rather have something I love that took a bit longer than something I can't bear to look at any more! But then, I take forever to finish things!
ReplyDeleteThat is EXACTLY how I'm feeling about my stripe study at the moment! I'm about two thirds through the border but I can't seem to make myself work on it for long enough to finish off those last few rows!
