mothwingTried my hand at an actual pattern for grown up knitters: Kieran Foley's Arran Waves.
Close-up before...
... and while being blocked on our living room floor rug:
And man, this was tricky. It took me over a month, I started over twice, but ended up with a result that I'm quite happy with. What i'm really not happy with anymore after this time is the yarn. In the beginning I liked the blue texture, but on the whole, the pattern is far too busy to do it justice. It also looks as though it really wanted to become a sock. Well, it can't be changed, and I'm not about to do this again any time soon. Sadly, it's also a bit too short for my taste .
