It took some time to find out where I was in the pattern, but I managed and worked on it today. I just wish crochet wasn&#8217;t so crazy &#8211; skip stitches here, then work several stitches into one&#8230; My headache and crazy crochet patterns don&#8217;t get along nicely, but I&#8217;ve managed 1.5 superlong rounds and the day is not over yet&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Another challenge with this project is that it makes me so sad&#8230; it&#8217;s what I was working on when our Lena died and just getting it out of its bag almost made me cry. Isn&#8217;t it strange how feelings are tightly woven into projects?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/knittedinswitzerland.files.wordpress.com\/2018\/01\/img_1700.jpg\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1070\" height=\"2448\" width=\"3264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/knittedinswitzerland.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/img_1700.jpg 3264w, https:\/\/knittedinswitzerland.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/img_1700-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/knittedinswitzerland.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/img_1700-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/knittedinswitzerland.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/img_1700-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3264px) 100vw, 3264px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But I&#8217;ll get there, just for today and then it can go back into the WIP pool until I draw its number again, or maybe I&#8217;ll try another round tomorrow.
