How I did it: I had no choice - I got a teaching job, and that meant no more rolling out of bed at 2 pm. But since this past Summer, I'd been slowly getting up earlier and earlier. 2 became 1, 1 became 12, 12 became 11... I realised that I didn't have much time during the day to do things. Having something to do at 3 pm shouldn't mean my whole day is shot. Now, on weekends, I usually wake up between 9 and 10, depending how I late I stay up the night before. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I used the pattern "Lady Eleanor Stole" from the book Scarf Style to teach myself the basic techniques. Then, I used that knowledge to make a scarf that was much, much skinnier, and with a different number of stitches in each rectangle. Read how I did it…
I thought I wanted a smaller one, because I don’t like wide stuff, so I bought what I thought was sock yarn. It’s lace. I’m using ones. This may never be done.
It’s never, ever, ever going to happen.
