I did it! I finished my January knitting!
The Clapotis, it is done. And very lovely, if I may say so.
No pictures yet, because I’m not home in daylight, remember? But tomorrow I am, so hopefully some pics then.
My current issue: it hasn’t been blocked yet. I’m not sure how I’m going to block it. Any blocking I’ve done before I’ve put out on a towel on a carpeted floor, and then stuck pins through knitting, towel, and carpet. This apartment is entirely hardwood, so I’m at a loss. I know people use their beds for shawls, and that may work for lace that dries so quickly, but this is thicker.
I actually like the scrunched, un-blocked look, but the corners do roll up.
The boyfriend pointed out that as of next week, I do have use of a steamer, unofficially (there’s one in the theatre). We’ll see.
I wore it to work today, and I got a compliment!
