Rrrriiiiiiiiiiippp!

Eeek! But it's true. After knitting away, all the while reminding myself to trust my swatch, a horrible thought occurred to me. I looked at my shrinky-dink swatch and then at the amount of yarn I was using up in the knitting. Again, I looked at the swatch and then the knitting. Holy Toledo! There's no way, under any circumstances, in any parallel universe, that I will have enough yarn. *sniffle*

Wait... can I get more? No. I bought up the store's entire stock in a sale. I'm feeling a pretty bag design coming on. Can I get some more in a different dye lot and alternate balls? Probably. But I'm horrible at joining. This will be my last resort. Hmm... Maybe something with stripes. Ugh! I could kick myself, if only I were still that flexible.

I will be thinking and sketching this week. But mostly thinking. In all seriousness, I'm thinking about winding all the Denim onto my swift and throwing the lot in the wash to shrink it up. But I'm resisting as much as possible as I want this to be a learning experience. Mommy said I always had to learn the hard way...
