Today's title is something you say when someone/something dies in-game and you are paying respects. Can you please say it for my clapotis?
Everything was going so well, as you've seen in the pictures. But you see I realized that as I knit into my new ball that it was sock weight, not DK. It looked so thin and sparse so I ripped that back to the join which was at this point, 14 rows back, and doubled the yarn. It just looked wrong.
I tried to just ignore it but when one section is obviously doubled yarn and the other is all smooth I just couldn't do it. It had to go.
I even tried to rip back two repeats but the drops didn't look organic enough for me anymore and I still didn't have enough yarn.
So I ripped the whole thing out even though I was on the last repeat section, because what else can one do?
Meet my new clapotis which I cast on last Wednesday, made out of Brooks Farms, Duet, a sport-weight kid mohair, and wool blend. I got this at MD S&W many, many years ago. It is soft and I think it is perfect for this project.
I'm not upset. These things happen. I tried my best to make it work and now I have just let it go. I am happy with my new yarn that is very soft and nice to work with and I know this project will fly off my fingers and I will be back to where I left off in no time.
What project could you not save and had to rip? In the end, how did you feel about your decision?
