No, not knitting projects. School projects. Sure, it may sound fun, but believe me, I don’t want to spend my evenings cutting out triangles to make into a hexagon. It’s hard to do perfectly. If your scissors wobble just a little- woops, time to draw a new one. And for even more fun, you can write a paper on the geometric properties that help it fit together. If you’re not tired out by all this merriment, then you can work on replicating a building that displays interesting designs that pertain to geometry. We’re all so delighted to work endlessly, oh yes.
So I haven’t gotten any knitting done today. I have a picture of an old crochet WIP, though:
It’s a granny square blanket I started more than a year ago. Why did I pick a blanket for a first project? It will never end. And I wouldn’t really call it a square. Granny rectangle? Granny butterfly-shaped-thing? (The longer sides pull in and remind me of butterfly wings…)
Ah, who cares if it doesn’t lay correctly. Most blankets aren’t displayed that way. Well, a lot of them are. But this one will be in a heap on the couch. It’ll be pretty that way, as the colors are nice.
(Hey, why am I jabbering on and on in my blog? I’ve finished the part of the building-thingy that’s due tomorrow, but I still have to explain the geometric properties of my hexagon. With double spacing!)
