I have been toiling away at my fir cone shawl. I don’t know what I am doing wrong, but keep losing a stitch when I transition from one pattern to the next. I can’t see where I am messing up, although I am reading my previous rows so in general it’s all lining up. It’s just the ends that are not stable. The thing will need a good wash and block before it’s ready for prime time, so I am hoping that it won’t show. If I could figure out the problem, I would just fix it. I am only about 4 inches from the cast on, so if I do figure it out, I will be able to drop a stitch and break out the crochet hook.
I am totally sounding negative, so I should say that I really like the yarn and the pattern is going to be really nice once it’s done, I am just frustrated with it now. Perhaps I was too ambitious, but really, it’s just a 10 stitch pattern, what’s wrong with me? I need to get over myself!
Ok back to work.
