Amazing Lace Entry #3: Non-committal Haiku
Indecision is
the girl who knits lace burden
inconstant, fickle
like in love she goes
through patterns with interest
peaked and then waning
trellis was the first
unfinished, sits abandoned
wanting to be knit
Green Hedera sock
lunch knitting, social buddy
one but toe complete.
pretty and hippie friendly
new love--pray it lasts
there are yet others
mim mountian peak out of reach
pattern incomplete
fidelity is
impossible for this girl
who knits much lace. Next?

I feel ya! I have two more secret lace teammates, in addition to my Trellis. Let's just say they're on the sidelines!

best haiku i've read in a long time (actually it's probably the first i've read since primary school :0)
ohh love the hemp ponchette have wanted that myself for a while, if only i could get my hands on the pattern! with so many lace projects on the go, you are bound to succeed somewhere- right?! x

Wow, I am most impressed.
P.S. I love the socks. And the "hippie" top.

I've had to set my Hedera socks aside for a few weeks now because I've been a bit confused by the pattern. For some reason the number of stitches don't seem to add up after picking up the stitches along the heel flap. It probably doesn't help that I'm trying to do it on magic loop, but still. Frustrating.

I like your Hedra socks so much more than the example on the weird plastic leg thingy in Knitty. You make me actually want to knit them.
