One step forward

I have been working on my lace Einband Icelandic shawl the last few days.  It has been quiet because it is not going so well.  

I am in the last section of the shawl where there ought to be a small leaf like motif only I am have a very bad time working it.  Each row seems to bring a new sort of miscount trouble and if one section is off in one row, the other is bound to be off in the next.  I am so confused.  And so close to the end.

On the other hand, I want it even more.  

The delicate colour change is everything I dreamed it would be.  I love it completely.  

Except for this last section of lace.  I am hating that section.  A lot.

One step forward.  Two back.
