I declare today a VICTORY
Saturday, March 19th, 2011 04:05 amJust finished the body of the right-hand mitten, and the thumbhole is on the right side \o/
(Technically, the thumbhole is on the left side, which is finally right).
I will probably stay well away from any cables for the next $x projects. Well well away -- I had to redo rows several times, more often than I've ever had to redo them before. Doing cables is hard enough: undoing (and then redoing them) is so much more pain. Was trying to finish the mitten by March 18, which is probably why I ended up having to undo and redo several rows' worth of cables over and over again (oh row 48 *fistshake*)
See, this is the mitten for my friend who asked me for one, and I wanted to finish it by March 18 because that is the day she discovers whether she's going to make doctor (she did).
I just need to knit the thumb, which is barely anything, and block it and then arrange a time to meet up and celebrate. I am going to be a day late, but \o/ anyway.
