The Cape | The Update

Hey family!

Well my yarn came the Monday after Rhinebeck and because I was mad I left it on the mail pile. I mean I had already started the Hen Plaid Wrap so yea, I didn’t even open it.

I waited until the weekend and decided to finish up. I took the partial Neck completely out because I hadn’t picked up the proper number of stitches anyway. I mean if I’m gonna finish and there is no longer a rush, may as well do it as instructed. So after I ripped it out I had a 2×2 ribbing party.

I knit most of Saturday away and I was just fine with that. My description of the perfect weekend includes tons of yarn, PJs, my DVR and take out. I did all of that and will not apologize about it. I ordered two more skeins so the plan was to use them both. I ended Saturday night at this point

Sunday, I’ll get up and do some house work, right? NOPE. I threw breakfast together and grabbed the Cape and headed to the sofa. It was football and knitting for me. Did I tell you all that no matter what my world presents when I am creating I am in my happy place? I did? Oh…
I went to bed after all of my shows on ABC and the last of Sunday night football. At this point I was so very sure that I would love the cowl neck better

I still had some rounds to knit so I threw it in my fringe supply Co project bag and k2p2’d all the way to Brooklyn.

My class went to lunch and that 60 minutes was all I needed and the rest as they say is history. I wore it home and I couldn’t be more proud.

I tend to doubt myself, but I did this and I love it

  1. Well done! What a lovely color, and you look great in that cape. I love the cowl neck. I’m enjoying the antici…..pation of waiting to find out what you’re up to next! But it’s all your fault – due to your example, I’ve decided to scrap my To Do list for today and order Italian (food, LOL) delivered and just try to finish my 8th sock. Might keep on going tomorrow, too, if I don’t finish it tonight. I’m all prepped for Hallowe’en so there’s nothing to do for that but wait. Anyway, congrats on finishing another beautiful project!
