Go me!

Having buggered up my hat for the second time, I have now managed to unpick 2 cables and am well on my way to getting it fixed! The yarn is very splitty though, which doesn't make things any easier.

I don't know whether to be proud I fixed things, or cross I fouled it up, twice ...

A while ago I entered a competition in Cross Stitcher magazine to win a selection of cross stitch kits. So long ago I had almost forgotten about it.

Well they turned up on Thursday! I won! I was so surprised :)



I only really entered because I have wanted Woodland Enchantress since I first saw it in the Dimensions Previews. The other kits aren't so much to my taste.

"Isn't perfection boring?" a professor once wrote on [livejournal.com profile] windrdr's test. While I've learned a good deal from successes, I think I've learned more from failures/mistakes.

Heh.

Mum said it takes about 20 minutes to learn to knit (well it took me 20 years, but I am dim), and a lifetime to learn how to fix all your mistakes. I think the latter half of that can apply to a lot of things
