The cat bed project is officially derailed. I was on the siding when I thought to compare the size to Prana’s current cat bed. It was way too small. (although larger than the picture above)
I could have ripped out stiches and redid it. But there were several issues against the bed. The whole thing was extremely lumpy and I didn’t see how blocking could fix that much lump. And the yarn sucked. Scratchy and itchy it clung to the needles and I had to push each stitch up towards the needle tip. The yarn was hard on my wrists so I had to keep taking breaks because I was getting sore.
Prana seems perfectly happy with his current bed and never realized this project was for him. I’m not even frogging what I knit. I’m taking the partial bed and the rest of the yarn to the free pile.
So now I only have the orange yellow sock on the needles. What to knit? I’m at an utter loss. Maybe something from stash yarn? But my stash yarn is not so big anymore. The yarn I do have is not enough for a big project. A smaller project sounds nice though. I’d like to do one more small project before starting another sweater.
