Rivendell FINISHED




Some GOOD news...Rivendell is finished and drying on the sock blockers. Just lovely! Perfect fit. Wonderful yarn and pattern from Chameleon Colorwork

Woe and Misery w/pictures


Couldn't help myself, I had to take a picture of this before I rip it out. The sleeves are, as you can see, about a foot too long. The back hem is also, about a foot too long. It looks more like a hugh frumpy housecoat.

woe and misery.....

all because I think I know enough to short cut directions.....darn, darn, darn! I finished the wonderful sweater coat by Annie Modesitt and tried to hang/steam block instead of laying flat/spray block...OH YEAH, I DID IT....my sleeves are now about a foot TOO LONG and the skirt part is at least a foot longer than it should be and I'm just disgusted with myself! NO PICTURES- my shame is too great. I have to rip it out and start over......darn, darn, darn!!!!
