I was mulling over a similar thought this morning of 'what would I do if I didn't like one of my Shakespeare in Lace kits?'. If someone I know will love it I think I'd knit it and give it to them. <br /><br />My least favorite shawl last year is Midsummer Night's Dream. I enjoyed the challenge of knitting it, but I will never wear a shawl that large. I'm actually considering ripping it back and re-working the pattern to make it smaller.Tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09723420180197235813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25604704.post-38951608726570340432010-04-07T11:05:26.061-04:002010-04-07T11:05:26.061-04:00In order for Happy to be a good protector, he has ...In order for Happy to be a good protector, he has to practice - on everything: recycling, toilet paper, toys, whatever.

I actually don't like variegated much at all anymore. Poor Happy with his boredom. It's interesting how they can find their own entertainment if you don't find it first.
