I’ve just put down my needles on my most recent lace project. Once again, the bind off was the most tedious boring part of the project. I’m so glad it’s done. It’s a triangular shawl which ends on the wide side, so, once again, the piece just grew and grew as I went along.
It’ll be good to work on a rectangular piece again. I’d like to have some consistency in expectation of time it takes to knit a row. Near the end of this, it was hard to pick up since I knew it was going to require a good length of time. This afternoon, two rows was 40 minutes.
I’m not a fast knitter, so that’s part of it, but it was fun and I’m glad I’m done.
I’m off to consider what to cast on next.
My Year of Lace first kit (supposedly)shipped out today. I hope to get it this week or early next. But I’m not sure I can wait that long. I’m not sure if I’ll want to work on that when I get it anyway 
I might try to pick up Hanami again and see if it’s any better.
I’m feeling strangely free at the moment. Always feel this way after the end of a project. Partly happy, partly in withdrawal.
