After a few adjustments were made, I was allowed to take the photo without a large fluffy cat obstructing the view. (By 'adjustments' I mean removing the large fluffy cat.)
Fortunately, Cookie was willing to supervise in a paws-off fashion. I really didn't need more help.
He likes the afghan my grandmother made me. |
And then we went down to see a game on the weekend with friends- the little theatre in their downtown was showing the World Series on the big screen. For that I needed something with contrast that I could knit in low light...hence, another variation on the diamond colorwork pattern. I will note that contrast doesn't help as much as you would think when you repeatedly mess up the pattern. But a subsequent game on the radio let me finish.
In this one, I moved the row of small diamonds over the large ones--but because I was making a larger size, I actually wound up putting two rows of small diamonds there. One of these days I'll do a hat with two rows of diamonds arranged symmetrically above and below the larger motif. But not today.
There's going to be at least one more game in the World Series, so I'm thinking maybe I should focus on those dratted cotton socks. It would be nice to finish those off before I spend a lot more time on the next two pairs of socks I've cast on...I did mention I'd been casting on
Aw, such a sweet "helper."
