I finally wrestled my way through that first major pattern block, the seahorses and crabs. I can’t wait for the post-blocking pictures, because right now it’s doing That Lace Thing, where you try to tug it out so see the shape, and the minute you let go it shrinks back up. This is about the best picture I could get (seeing as how I have only two hands – if I could just figure out how to take a picture with my toes, this would be much, much easier).
I enjoyed this first bit very much. The pattern was difficult enough to be interesting, but not so difficult that I had to bite back curses or tears. Much.
I’m halfway through the ‘bubble’ pattern that delineates each of the main patterns, and then it’ll be on to the starfish!
…oh no…starfish…Patrick and Spongebob!…lace knitting...fun...what is FUN?...fun is...well, it's sorta like a...what is fun...let me spell it for ya...
The FUN Song

(Ah, Spongebob. Purveyor of fine brain worms since 1999...)

Interesting--you're thinking Sponge Bob, and I'm thinking it would be perfect knitting for The Deadliest Catch. Life is different without children at home.
Haha!
That accursed song is my husband's favorite song they play on The Playground (kid's radio show around here) and he'll walk around singing it for hours after they do.
That's just mean.
Now I'm going to have SpongeBob stuck in my head all day. Mean, I tell you.
Could have been worse... could have been The Campfire Song Song.
The shawl looks beautiful so far.
Hooray for Sponge Bob!
The shawl is lovely. Can't wait to see it finished.
I watch both Spongebob and Deadliest Catch while knitting, but I've never been brave enough to watch them while lace knitting. You go girl.
Oh yeah, and thanks, I too will have F-U-N seared into my brain all day (I didn't even have to watch the video)...if it ever goes out, it will probably be replaced by the Campfire Song Song. Oh well. I'm only knitting socks.
Reads whiterose's comment and shreiks, "Noooooo... not that! I hate the Campfire Song Song!"
The shawl is lovely. :)
