Knitting Disaster Q & A

QUESTION: How do you know when the purple lace scarf is long enough?

ANSWER: It depends. Who is it for? How tall is she? How long would she like it to be? How will she wear it?

ANSWER FOR MORONS: It's long enough when, in an effort to lay it out to its full length so you can measure it, you manage to yank half of it off the needles. It's lace. It'll never be the same.

Time to cast off, I mean, time to go make lemons out of lemonade, or whatever.

Have you learned nothing from the Democratic presidential nomination process? Never, ever, admit a mistake. Just say it was a misunderstanding. So what if there was no sniper fire, it was an awful experience traveling with c-list Hollywood types. So what if your pastor is a (insert word of choice), you just say that your grandmother has made racist comments.

Never, never, never will any of your wondrous knitting products, however imperfect, be confused with the cluster---- that was the Democratic primary process. Nothing was that bad. Not Velveeta, not beets. Nothing.

Anyway, I've seen what you did. It looked beautiful to me.
