I'm still plugging away at the Peacock Stole! I've finished the first two charts (on the first side of the stole), and am working on the third. I was proud of myself this past weekend: I'd dropped half a dozen stitches while knitting on the bus on Thursday, when we jerked to a stop. On Saturday, while at the train station and waiting to take the train to visit my parents, I managed to fix them quite neatly. I had to take some time to figure out exactly where in the pattern those stitches fell, and how they lined up with the row above, so I could figure out what I needed to do with them. It was a little fiddly, but it ended up looking just great. It also made me glad that I use lifelines: the stitches were only able to drop about three rows!
I need to meet my fiancé at his office after work today, so we can head out to our friends' house for dinner. I'll probably get there a bit early, and get some knitting done with a cup of tea at a café while I wait. Yay, a few moments stolen for the stole!
