This is how much yarn was left from my April Angst UFO. (Okay, the link does not work. I'm still figuring out how to link to a previous post in my own blog...see entry on April 23rd.) I was getting a little antsy and wondering if there was enough for the final repeat, the border, and the bind off.
There was, and I did finish this UFO within the "scheduled" month! I'm still not overly fond of it, but it is done.
Specs:
1 skein Euroflax sport weight linen- 100 grams
color "neptune"
size 5 needles
Moss Grid Towel pattern from MDK
I do not know why I was so down on this particular project.
- It is not gift-worthy.
- Blue is not my favorite color, although I do have some blue in my kitchen, where the towel will live and be useful.
- The pattern was relatively easy to memorize, but I think patterns of just knits and purls are relatively boring. I am not a mathematician, but I'm reminded of the binary system. Lots can be done with it, mathematically and artistically, but it is just 0 and 1. Just knit and purl. I prefer to have some ssk's and k2togs thrown in for a little variety...
- I may be about to enter a knitting slump...
Tomorrow is a new month, and I am excited about May's UFO. The picture is really cool!

I think the towel is beautiful and would make a wonderful gift. Saw the 3 on the Mason Dixon web site.
