Day 9–Magnum Opus in Yarn

Day 9 - Magnum Opus in Yarn

It is done.

It is finished.

Remember when I told you first about this “little” project (scroll down to #7). At that time I was planning on having this be my Ravelympics Ravellenic Games project. That means that I thought I was going to be able to finish it the 15 days that the games encompass.

Perhaps I should just call this my Wrap of Magical Thinking because it certainly didn’t happen in 14 days. It actually took me 166 days. That is almost 24 weeks. Or if you want to look at it another way….

Over half of an average pregnancy.

But it is done.

And now I have to decide what the next big project is. But I can tell you this. It won’t be lace for a while. Of course I say that and then I get the lace urge and have to cast on again.

But not this week.

  2. I learned how to knit with DPNs just so I could make socks. Now I'm going to have to learn to knit lace just so I can make something as beautiful as that. Too inspiring!
