Pure silk (they’ve got new dk stock in, price includes postage, save some cream for me) requires a bit of constant grip as you go so that I don’t drop it (again) and have a line of stitches running madly (I lucked out, I was near the end of the row and it wasn’t hard to fix).
Which means I can only do so much of it at a time and then I have to give my hands a break for awhile. Which is frustrating when I want to make holiday headway.
Till I made myself stop, look at it, look at the print-out date on the bottom of the page, and remember: this shawl is nearly 2/3 done. I started it Monday evening. Honestly, that’s not shabby.
Pass the icepacks.
