Almost a Holden


I've got a lap full of yarn spaghetti that I am hoping will block out to a thing of beauty. I didn't like these colors after I plied them but they grew on me and now I can't wait to see this thing finished.


The only problem is that there is a picot bind off. There are eight steps that must be done in order to bind of two measly stitches and there are about a bazillion stitches on the needles at the moment. This is going to take a while.

  1. Well it's already a thing of beauty! I know what you mean about that picot bind off though. It was a real time consumer but well worth the effort in the end though. Blocking all those picot edges was no picnic either! :-)

  2. Picot bind offs are a total pain, but totally worth it. Of course, you may just end up murdering someone before you get there, but...

  3. But it is AMAZINGLY beautiful. I just love it. I get impatient at the last step even if it is a long last step!
