Usually if I get stuck in a time consuming project I do little things -just as you mentioned--to break it up so I don't get bored with it (or mad at it!).

I didn't know you were at Renegade! That place was huge... I think I only got around to 1/2 the vendors myself. I think the last Renegade I was at (before this one) was the one in Brooklyn three years ago, when we passed out all those copies of Adorn in the hot sun.<br>Are you living in TX now?

I thought it over and decided that 1) It will probably straighten out a little once it's off the needles and blocked, and 2) I'm sure I'll be wearing it as a scarf more often than not, so I doubt anyone will notice if it is a little curled.<br><br>I'm going to have to make one of those blankets soon.

It's possible that you knit the first few rows tightly (hard to tell, and more reason to do a gauge swatch next time--to get familiar with the stitch before you start) but it will probably come out in the blocking. However, if you're not that far along and think it will always bother you, it's worth starting over. Oooh, that is pretty!

I may have knitted the first few rows a little too tightly. I can't tell for sure whether it will all even out, or whether the middle of the starting edge (that's rolling up a bit) will continue to do so. Great yarn too; this is my first time working with Ella Rae and I already want more.
