so, i know my goals for the week mentioned nothing of a wrap, but i've been staring at my three skeins of lavender yarn for quite some time, and well, i couldn't help myself. I also found a way to incorporate some lovely creme yarn i picked up a while ago as well.
so far I've only ripped out the stitches and started again twice. the problem was that the original lace pattern i had picked out for the edge came out looking like I had made repeat mistakes and not an actual pattern. and then the second edging I chose was based off garter stitch and looked really lame at the bottom of my stockinette panel. but now I adjusted the second edging to stockinette and it's looking a lot better. I'm excited about it. it's just two big rectangles, so construction should be really simple and quick, which I'm happy about.
no more lace for a while. I'm still bitter about how the end was no where in site for the longest time. It's like trying to sail over a lake, and you keep thinking, it's just a lake, the shore will be coming up any minute now, and well, it takes a lot longer, but after every little swell you are still looking for the land. I anticipated lake perris, i got lake erie. at any rate, this should be around clear lake status.
anyways, aside from dreaming about being able to take day trips again when I'm not pregnant, this wrap should be fun, and it's bloody cold, so hopefully it'll go fast so i can wear it soon.

I love wraps. I use one at work for my blanket. My mom made it for me.
