As we’re going to be going full-tilt tomorrow with our Friday lab day, I’m taking a break from my nightly studying to get in a little knitting. I’m attempting to put sheep on a sweater. I’m so fried from class today that it took me 15 minutes to locate black yarn for their little stick legs. I need to divide up small balls of off-white yarn for their fluffy little bodies, but I’m trying not to think about that right now. This is intarsia, and I haven’t quite worked out how much is going to be needed for each ball.
I originally thought this pattern was an in-the-round fair isle yoke, so I wasn’t stressing…until I looked at the pattern AGAIN. I’ve essentially knit everything else in the round, so doing drop sleeves with intarsia on the front and back of the sweater is going to be–oh, let’s be positive and say it’s going to be an ADVENTURE.
My friend Sheila, who–if they gave them out–would have a black belt in knitting, suggested I just modify the pattern to be in the round. However, after days on end of staring at Visual Studio Code, trying to decipher why the #%^*ing code ISN’T WORKING this time and why there are angry red alerts in the F12 console–I just can’t face the prospect of counting stitches to figure out how many little sheep I can knit in the round, and how many more little balls of yarn I’d need…
I suspect lab day tomorrow is going to be simpler than that.
