Moving on

Well after the disappointment of Saturday came the lethargy of Sunday with very little being done - partly due to the difficulty in seeing (scratched my retina just to add to the fun on saturday!)

Today has been much better, I was able to see enough to do some more work on Kate - this has been on the back burner for a month or so as I managed to lose my pattern. It's now beginning to look as if the end is in sight. I have the back, two fronts, one sleeve + lace edging and the front bands completed.

So it's a sleeve + edging and the bottom lace hem to do. I'm going to hope I can see well enough to pick up the stitches for the sleeve tomorrow ( dark blue is not a good colour to pick up and short row in the dark!).

I've decided not to graft the lace edgings on but to knit them onto the live stitches as I go - I wasn't sure if it would work but the sleeve edging was a success so I'll stick with it. There will then be the fun of a hunt for suitable buttons....

Before all the joy of that I have the pleasure of root canal work in the morning - I say pleasure as I hope this is going to stop the pain!
