Grrrr! Did I scare you?!!?


Another GRRR today.
I suppose I should technically be able to finish one in one day, but I'm not quite talented enough yet.
Or... I guess the technical term would be PATIENT enough.

I love the way this pattern looks, but I apparently have the pattern following skills of a four year old crack addict.

Because.
This shit is HARD for me to concentrate on.

Is it okay to say the word 'shit' in a blog where I'm writing about a little old lady type of habit?
Or am I grounded from the cookie jar today?

I'm only about halfway finished. Which is annoying, as I spent hours doing it... but in all fairness to me, I ripped it back about 43 billion times because I'm a moron who can't count or use fine motor skills.

I suppose I shouldn't admit that I'm now stuck in the process of making a baby blanket because I didn't knit anything in time for the shower I attended earlier that I was going to make a bunch of these washcloths for, but then again, no one is reading this at the moment, and I can admit anything I darned well want to.

(I'm not sure why it is that I can say shit but must use darned.)

This pattern truly is gorgeous and totally whimsical... I want one in every single bathroom I own (2) and probably more than one.
ACTUALLY I want it in a blanket pattern, but that's about as likely to happen as world peace and a gay president.

This yarn is the Berocco something or other... I put that in for good technical measure, as I truly don't have a clue what the difference makes yet...
I can't afford super nice yarn and don't know the terms to sound intelligent.

Still, the best part of the pattern for me is the back.
I don't know why... the front is gorgeous, but the back just has character.
or. Character on the back of character.

I couldn't really get a good picture of it but it's so freaking cool!

Many more to come, maybe even completed one day projects one day, but for right now... just the gorgeous pink.
