I'm just slogging along ...

Hi, guys! I just finished a strip and started a new one. The one I finished was "Little Leaf." It makes an interesting texture, but I'm too anal retentive to like the look. It looks a little messy. The one I started today is the Fisherman's Rib and I think I'll like it better because it's more symetric.




I'm getting a little worried about how all these pieces are going to fit together. I guess it'll all work out. Several of my strips turned out wider than they should have -- but I'm thinking bigger is better, especially with my figure! :) I bet I'm going to have to make my strip #12 longer than it is, though, to accomodate the extra circumference. Otherwise, it will draw in at the bottom. I guess we'll all cross that bridge when we come to it.

Happy knitting!
