I had the gumption to start working on the lace again yesterday and decided that I needed to take it off. The edge, as worked, was never going to lie flat in the valleys. So, I faced a redo. I tried a few things yesterday but didn't have the feel for it at all. By late afternoon, I had pretty much decided that I needed a new design but I did not sit down and choose it. I felt that a day off knitting was wiser. Almost off knitting, but that is a different story. The decision was made and that seemed to be enough.
This morning, I began peppy and snippy and ready to go. It took me only a half a cup of coffee to set my path on a new pattern and to begin. We are go for lace re-launch.
As always, it doesn't look like much and is a little hard to see, but trust me. It is looking good.
It's a very similar pattern to the first pattern, but has broader bands of garter that seem to mark sections better for me. It knit easily and with speed.
I hope that continues. There is a bit of time pressure to get it all done, plus there is another shawl that needs a border to knit by the end of the month.
