It’s Hallowe’en! In lieu of a party this evening, Andrew and I holed up in the apartment with candy and movies. And I knit the last repeat on my (slightly belated) lapghan square. It’s now all finished, packed up, and waiting to be mailed tomorrow morning. I forgot to take a finished picture before I packed it all away, but it doesn’t look all that different from the last few posts. It’s 14 x 12 inches instead of the intended 12 x 12, but it’s soft and blue and made with good wishes. I learned a lot on this project, most importantly how to “read” my work. Once I figured that out, I was able to complete the piece without the pattern, but it’s more accurate than the first few repeats where I was completely reliant on reading each stitch from the paper. So overall I count it a success.
