WPC: Numbers

The Daily Post Weekly Photo Challenge for the week of June 3, 2016.

Equations. Clock faces. Cash registers. Numbers are everywhere: this week, share a photo that puts them front and center.

As a rule, numbers and I don’t get along very well.  Most of the time, the thought of doing any sort of math causes me to break out in a cold sweat.  But since I love to knit, numbers and I must frequently call a truce and find a way to live with each other.

Especially when knitting a pattern for a lace shawl.

Because there will be mistakes, and there will be counting.  Lots and lots of counting.

  1. Oh is this the Ashton shawlette? I finished knitting one recently(!) and this pattern looks suspiciously similar… 🙂
    Regardless of what the pattern is, it looks beautiful so far!

    • Haha, well spotted — it is indeed the Ashton Shawlette! Thank you for the compliment; it’s a really lovely pattern. I’m inspired by all the beautiful projects I’ve seen on Ravelry. 🙂
