I am making progress! And I haven’t pulled out all my hair! Here’s the Pasa Doble Shaw at 8 inches long – each time you see those cables cross… that’s 4 hours! So I’ve got about 14 hours into this thing so far. Ack! With another 28 inches to go that means… math… math… grumble… grumble… like 60 more hours! OMG… hopfully my numbers are off, ’cause like Barbie said, “Math is Hard!” I’m mostly working on this one on the weekends (locked in my bedroom) and a 1/2 hour every morning before I get up and get ready for work (while watching BBC News!).
I’ve made it to 12″ on the Kimono Vest – 12 more inches to go on the back and I’m thinking I should have bought another ball of purple… hopefully the yarn dosen’t disappear from Joanne’s sales floor. Luckily this project is simple enough that I can work on it while watching TV and driving too and from work (when I’m not ranting at my carpool coworking about the things that go on in our workplace – why can’t I win the lottery so I can stay home and make beautiful things all day!?!). It makes one long for a Zombie Invasion so you could hole up for a month or two and knit while the Zomb’s starve to death (by 28 days later rules anyway). Ah, Zombies….
