Posted in Project: In Progress

So, it's now April and my famous afghan is only about 5 inches long. But I HAVE been working on it! Mind you, this project is on needles that I can barely get my hands around, and with three different yarns. So while it does get bulky fast, it is REALLY hard to tell exactly what I am doing, or not doing, or pick up dropped stitches, or see the pattern. I started with a really odd pattern on which I kept losing my place, and no way to count the stitches or fix problems, so I ripped it out several times. Then I came up with my own pattern, much simpler to do and keep track of. KK-PP-KK-PP all the way across, then on the return journey PP-KK-PP-KK, so it will basically be a long rib-knit afghan. I still had to frog it twice before getting it started to my satisfaction, but now it IS started, and it IS growing, and I AM proud of it, thankyouverymuch.
