I started the peacock shawl in January. I am using my VERY beautiful Seasilk by Handmaiden. The yarn is decadent. So soft and just enough springyness to it. The pattern is turning out beautifully. So why am I so angry at it?!!!!!!???? Because I am in chart 2 row 79. And for some reason I keep ending up with 3 extra stitches in the middle!!!!! And I CAN”T FIGURE IT OUT!!!!!!! I want so badly for this to work. I NEED this to work. Why is this project kicking my ass every 2-4 rows? I don’t know. Heck Tammy had to find and fix my mistakes on rows 73/75. It just keeps blurring together for me. AAAARRRRRGGGGGG!

Peacock Shawl

You realize that this is the shawl’s fault, right? This has NOTHING to do with you! It is being like a 2 year old who hasn’t had her nap! She needs to be in time out.
In the mean time you need to work on a project that is deserving of your time. Peacock is being a prissy brat and therefore deserves to be left alone.
Hrm…lets see, what could you work on instead?
