it's august, and in project spectrum world, that means "neutrals."
just so you know, i'm not good with neutrals. but i'm going to give it a go.
remember this?
i was going to finish it, and then i start thinking about it, how i didn't want to finish it, and how i was just not excited about it, and it wasn't the type of sweater i actually wanted, so....
i frogged it. heh heh. i feel so much better.
and another reason i feel better after today.
yep, it's blocking. i've got to weave tons of ends in but LOOK HOW CLOSE I AM TO FINISHING!!!!
Yay! So close!!

Good decision - no point in putting more hours into something you might end up ripping anyway!
And the scarf looks amazing! Can't wait to see it finito!
