Modifications

I'm still in Ohio, visiting family. (I leave tomorrow.) 

We've done a few road trips. We've spent some time just hanging out. And I've done a little crochet...

I'm not quite where I was when I ripped it all out, but I'm getting closer. And it's not nearly as ripply. (For comparison, before...)

So, progress. 

(I should probably mention that sister-in-law doesn't entirely recall the conversation we had a year ago when she described what she wanted me to make her, so I've kind of been released from making this whole thing an oval. Before I leave, we're going to measure this against her, and then I might just square things off to make the whole thing simpler. Or not. We'll see how I proceed from here.)

  4. Yes, you're making progress. And it'll be good for you if you have the freedom to make it an easier way.

  5. After all that - hurray for incomplete memories! The remade project does look better and I hope you can make good progress on the flight home.

    1. We'll see. The flight to was full, so it was less comfortable for me to crochet.

I appreciate your comments.

*Exception: I do not respond to "what if?" comments, but I do read them all. Those questions are open to your interpretation, and I don't wish to limit your imagination by what I thought the question was supposed to be.
