Lime Street Knits

After two days of consistent work on Wicket, I was ready to throw in the towel again. The pattern is t-e-d-i-o-u-s. And this is coming from a girl who thinks that knitting a blanket in stockinette is just dandy. Also, the yarn is so intolerably sticky. It's perpetually catching on itself and you practically need to pry it off of the needle after each stitch. Until... I changed to the last skein.

All of the skeins that I used were (obviously) from the same dye lot. Their labels are identical. They should all have the same wool to silk ratio. And yet, this final skein is a dream to knit with. No sticking, no bunching, it glides off the needles with the greatest of ease. This must be my month for inconsistent yarn.

After the Wicket incident, I took another look at Little Mistake:



Now I think that the white skein looks fine.
