You've put so much effort into your project.
You made a gauge swatch, chose your size, worked row by row…
and in the end, you try it on and think:
You're working on your project, focused and relaxed. You insert your hook or needle into the next stitch – and suddenly only part of the yarn is caught. The rest of the strands stay behind somewhere between the fibers.
Some designs never truly disappear – they simply wait for the right moment to be rediscovered.
