Honestly, I posted yesterday, or tried to. But there were server problems on my part so it just got posted today. I still get credit.
So, I was really pumped to finish the border of Madli. Last night I cast on, and messed up. So I cast on again and knit a few rows before retiring for the night. This morning I did some more knitting, got halfway through the border... and messed up even worse. I didn't even bother to rip it out; I just threw it away. So tonight I cast on. And messed up. Cast on again. Messed up again. After maybe my fourth attempt I realized I was knitting the first row entirely wrong (a really stupid mistake) and cast on again. THAT time didn't even take.
Eventually, it did, and I'm about a third of the way through.
I was beginning to think I was losing it for awhile. I suppose knitting on very little sleep and while feeling icky didn't help any.
Tomorrow I dragging my friend Bob (I actually typed "Bobo." That should be his new name. Yay!) for a feast of Indian food and then a feast of yarn. I hope I get a good night's sleep, despite the impending excitement.
In blog-related news, I would like to express my surprise and pleasure at my blog hit count jumping from 30-odd hits a day, to 50-odd, to now over 70, in very little time. In no time at all, I will be the Wendy of the Midwest! (I wish!)
