A new WIP with old yarn! I've started a ten-stitch blanket in an effort to use up my large pile of sock yarn scraps once and for all.

the little voice that told me, oh, it'll be so much cosier to sew up this jumper in bed fucking lied
the lighting in my room isn't really good enough for knitting, let alone when you drop an edge stitch and spend twenty minutes trying to find the damn thing again 😭

me sliding in ur inbox for that ask challenge if ur still doing it...
freud/rusty, independent merc freud (which means v.i snail, v.ii o'keeffe and v.iii rusty (or v.ii rusty hmmm) au??
yeah!! THANK YOU FOR THE PROMPT it's given me the wyrms...I think here, Rusty would be just a taaad more brash/arrogant than usual bc he'd be the ace in the Vespers, whilst Freud is,
Well, Having The Time Of His Life because he can really pick and choose what he wants to do, but he's also not got a Snail to shove all his paperwork off to wwww
but here's the sentences:
--
LOCKSMITH’s screaming all kinds of alarms at him right now, but Freud - Freud can’t hear them through the euphoria of seeing STEEL HAZE in a similar state, heavily damaged but still so poised and defiant.
“You, unmuzzled,” he said, breathlessly, into the mic, “Are a sight to behold.”
The sharp intake of breath from Rusty is audible and Freud grins, pushing forward on LOCKSMITH’s accelerator once again.

If you're hesitating between unraveling or using a quick fix that will leave a mistake in your work, ask yourself these questions: Will it be visible... or will you be the only to know? Will a quick fix bother you forever...? Is the idea of unraveling so demotivating....? Do what feels best to you.
These wise words come from Lovely Lace Knits by Gabrielle Vezina. It is one thing if a garment does not fit, if it chokes you at the neck or binds your arms. Clothing that does not let your body move the way you want it to move is a curse. But if the mistake is a purely decorative one, as is the case with lace knits, you need to ponder Vezina's questions.
Cause if you end up despising the garment and won't wear it, or end up refusing to finish it in frustration, there is no point to all the effort you have already made. Better to figure out what you can live it, and get on with it. I daresay all makers need to decide what they can live with.

I actually really dislike the look of chunky yarn, but my first finished knitting project was a chunky vest that I’ve never worn in my life because it’s just so. chunky. so I plan on unraveling it and making a few cabled beanies with it (maybe two? and a smaller one if there’s enough yarn left). the yarn is really soft and pretty, and I don’t want it to be forgotten in my closet unused. :)
