And I swear I don't swear, usually.
But I am knitting this:
The Shelby Stole, not the chair. hahaha
Pretty lace, right?
I am starting to think that I do not LIKE knitting lace. This is the yarn:
Skinny, skinny yarn

And this is my project so far.

After knitting two Umaro throws with super bulky yarn on size 15 needles, I find that it's just so much more difficult and fiddly and annoying to knit on small needles with skinny yarn. And I make way more mistakes because it's just so much more difficult and fiddly and annoying. And who, in their right mind, puts yarn overs on either side of markers, I'd like to know. As a result of the yarn and the needles and the yarn-over placement, I do a lot of tinking. A LOT of tinking. Not my fault, y'all. It's the project's fault.
So I'm beginning to think that I might not like lace-knitting. I love knitting cables, but lace?
Maybe not so much. Makes me swear. Again, not my fault.
