Lapghan Complete

Here’s my completed lapghan. I still have to weave in all the ends, but that’s the only thing left to do, so I consider it done. It’s such a nice feeling to finally finish something that has been going for so long. This project was one of the first ones I started a little over a year ago when I began knitting. I will probably keep it a while to admire my handiwork before handing over to charity. I’m very pleased with the final result. I ended up not having to redo a section. I just seamed it up very carefully and it worked out fine.

2 Circs

Wednesday, February 2, 2005

Way back when, I started a pair of legwarmers on dpns and somehow ended up adding stitches. It was my first attempt using dpns. I ripped it and put it away. Last night I pulled it back out and decided to try my hand at 2 circs, hoping that it would be better than dpns, but so far, dpns are doing better for me. The socks that I started way back in June look better than this legwarmer. But of course, it’s just the beginning. If it looks too bad, I’ll rip it and start over. I’m determined to figure this out, one way or another. Who knows, though. I might actually be one of those people who prefer dpn over 2 circs. < gasp! />
