Rachel Greene (F.R.I.E.N.D.S): And my veil was lace, made by blind, Belgium nuns.
Woman: Blind?
Rachel: Well, not at first, but it was very intricate work and they said even though they lost their sight, it was all worth it.
So, regarding the Swallowtail Shawl.
I didn’t do it right the first time. Let me show you with the aid of pictures.
The budding lace is supposed to look like buds or leaves.
THESE didn’t look like leaves! They look like random globs of gloppys!
And just so you know what a huge idiot I am? I didn’t have lifelines BEFORE the error.
It was frogged.
It was this big.
But never mind, I restarted it immediately and I am not past the point where I made the error. I enlarged the pattern and use the spreadsheet that Sasha gave to me. I just had to count after every row I knitted and ticked the box off when everything tallies. That way, I not only keep track of the row I am in, I also keep track of the number of stitches. Brilliant!
It’s growing very nicely now. Looking good. Just remind me not to be an idiot.

I’m lazy to edit the entry. Just so you know, the sentence is “I am NOW past the point where I made the error.”
I can’t edit entries with pictures. Because WordPress is so awesome, it will never allow me to delete or edit any posts with pictures.
