The Dude abides.


Not much has been happening lately in my knitting world. I have few projects snoozing on the needles and the only thing I've been working on almost every day is The Dude  but I'm struggling with it a lot. The first excitement is long gone, replaced by frustration. In two months I've only finished back and left front. I'm tired of constantly ripping it off and redoing. I'm sure more than ever that knitting in pieces is not for me; I'm overwhelmed by the amount of loose ends, the fair isle worked flat is a nightmare and I feel like it's killing all joy of knitting. Not good. Especially that I have to carry on knitting it: C. is in desperate need of warm cardigan and I really don't want to waste this lovely (and expensive) yarn. Oh, boy. I hope I'm done with it soon.
