I call this the Beanie Of Death because it was during this project (the easiest of projects - I know, I know!!) that I lost my knitting mojo. I can’t take credit for that term. A good knitting friend coined it, but I readily used it after losing mine. I had the brain fart of the century and made the stupidest mistakes over and over and over and tinked and ripped this out more times than I care to remember! In my defense, I think a lot of this was due to heavy stress in other areas and the start of a business venture on my part taking up all of my brain cells. I’m happy to say I’ve gotten my mojo back (slowly) and am now working on arm sleeves, a raglan sweater, the Milkweed shawl and another beanie (this time with a great pattern).
