Well, the SusannaIC Autumn MKAL is finished, and the next MKAL I'm taking part in doesn't start until the New Year - but I still have a Mystery Monday for you, a mystery that perhaps you can solve for me since I am stumped.
Last week my MIL generously frogged and rewound the Oslo Walk Shawl for me, ready to be turned into something beady and sparkly but with way less opportunities for error, which ruled out the Golden Orchids Shawl for the time being.
Shuffling through my queue, favorites and library on Ravelry, to try and find a pattern that I already own for which I also have enough of the frogged Artesano Alpaca 4ply in 'Sweetpea', I came up with Sweet Dreams by BooKnits.
No, the mystery today isn't how or why I made more errors (I haven't made any - yet) but rather, why is the pattern in the state it is ? I've been through my projects, and searched this blog, but I cannot find any record of having made this pattern before - so why does it look like this:
Yeah, I need practice using my mouse to write with in Paint.
But you get the idea. Most important for our mystery is (A) which clearly shows that the lines of the pattern have been marked off as each row has been completed. (B) is most likely a tea-stain, since I'm not a huge coffee drinker. (C) is a water stain, and D is some other kind of drink stain.
That's a lot of scars and detritus for a pattern which I haven't made, don't you think ?
So what happened ?
Maybe it's demon possessed and it's some other pattern which has been taken over by the spirit of Boo Knits?
ReplyDeleteDid you start it and then frog it?
ReplyDeletePossibly an outside chance - but I tend to retain records of everything on Ravelry, even stuff I've frogged ...and to frog it so close to finishing ....I would have remembered, I think ...
DeleteThat is very spooky for real, especially if you are the only knitter in the house. What a mystery indeed!
