Peace of Mind Organizing

Knitting Olympics: Half-way there!

11 August 2008

I promise I won’t write about knitting every day during the Olympics. I’m just so pleased with my progress that I have to report it. Tomorrow I’ll try to write something relevant to organizing.

I’m happy to report that I since Friday morning I’ve finished and blocked three lace squares. I thought Square 51: Faggoting and Fancy Rib was gonna kill me…it’s the one that made me give up on the project for almost a year. I think I started over on it about six times and at one point had to unravel eight rows after I realized I’d made a fatal error. Happily, the other two squares were easier, probably because I used lifelines, which I didn’t actually end up needing.

Here are photos of the three I completed this weekend.

Square 52: Lace Diamonds

Square 53: Bumblebee Pattern

I’m halfway through the fourth lace square, well on my way to achieving my goal!
