Just a short post today, after all of our Stitches mania for the past few days ...
As I start to get worried about whether or not I will actually finish my Olympic knitting on time, I am pleased with the little things:
I have the thumb on the proper side for my second glove. How embarrassing would that be? I'd be trucking along, thinking I might finish, and then -- *boom* -- blindsided by making two right-handed gloves.
Is it bad that I keep looking at it to make sure? Now that I've posted about it, maybe I can let go and believe in it, and just keep on knitting.
I'll admit that at this point I think the knitting will be fine, it's the finishing process that worries me!
They're looking good! What's the finishing (besides weaving in some ends)?
