Yes, friends, it's true.
I think I've FINALLY discovered a type of colorwork that I enjoy.
Why didn't anyone tell me about mosaic knitting sooner?!
I started this last year as a knit along with Mikayla. Neither one of us really committed to it, so it was kind of a off-and-on project. Especially because I kept switching colors.
Like, oh my god, I changed my mind A MILLION GODDAMNED TIMES. And ripped it out again and again as I had new ideas.
But when my mom asked for a shawl and this one was already so far along, I finally committed and got it done.
Mostly...
See, this should have a whole other repeat of the brown and white design, buuuuttttttt I screwed it up. I added an extra color in because I didn't think I'd have enough of the white and it would have screwed up the whole pattern if I tried to do the last repeat. So I said fuck it and just moved onto the ribbing.
The important thing is that my mom loves it and it's perfect for her to use when she's relaxing on her porch or around their firepit.
The other important thing is now I have a deep urge to make ALL THE MOSAIC THINGS!
Which is a bit of a problem since Christmas is only 34 days away.
Hmmm... gift cards for everyone and just knit for myself is the obvious solution to this.
