the good: yesterday was my post office day ... i brought home two packages! from canton village quilt works: a new supply of kona solids to replenish my stash.
and from sewcalgal for my prize from the colonial needle giveaway ... a measuring tape, seem ripper, and magnet and a little pack of needles!
the bad: by afternoon i had knit a row on each of my projects. so i picked up one to work another row and saw a glaring error. i set that aside and checked the green shawl that i had begun a new pattern way and found i had miscounted on the third repeat of 19. soooo, i set that aside and picked up the sox and found i had worked the same row twice. sigh. i gathered them up,set them aside and went back to finish my morning project.
the ugly: went back to do the next step on a self binding receiving blanket for my soon to be dggs, pressed all the inside seems in the proper direction and turned it right side out -- no mitered corners; the corners weren't corners. i had mitered the corners from wrong side -- the seam side; not the fold side. yikes. wasn't up to taking a picture and showing that off. break time. have been reading since. maybe for another day.
