To rip or not….?

Published by Lindsey at 8:50 pm under Current Projects

Clapotis is DONE.  I completed it last Tuesday (Feb. 12th).  Just need some good photos before I can give the full FO report.

Since I completed Clapotis, I’ve picked up another project that’s on the needles to work on as my at home project.  I decided to work on Icarus, but I’m just not 100% sure I like the yarn for this project and I’m considering ripping it out.

As much as the yarn is "me" in color, I just can’t see actually wearing a shawl so…. bright.  And despite the fact that I’ve seen some really pretty variegated Icarus shawls, I don’t know that these colors will work.  I think I’d like to make this pattern, but with a solid color.  The thing keeping me from ripping it out is how much work I’ve already put into it.  I have done nearly 3 repeats, so it’s a bit, but not quite half way or anything. 

Do I rip or not?

    Rip it. You’ve been questioning it for a while now. I think if you were really happy with it, you would have started working on it again and not questioned it. ;0)

    I agree with Amanda. Rip it! You’ll be happier in the long run.
