Oy Frieda. Yesterday was a Very Bad Day for the indulgence scarf.

First I realized that it was too wide - this after I was about twice as far as I was in the picture below. So I had to, *gasp*, TEAR THE WHOLE THING OUT. Yech.

Then… I came out to my car yesterday morning, in a DRIVING rainstorm, to discover that the velcro on my laptop bag had grabbed my kntting off the front seat when I got out of the car. My reborn Indulgence scarf was outside my car in a nice deep mudpuddle, and the water had wicked up the trailing yarn into the car, so the driver’s seat was all wet too. Joy.

Then… oh yeah, it continued… I got home to find that The Damn Cat had gotten ahold of the other skein of indulgence and strewn it throughout the entire house. And back again. And then some more. There was much swearing. Most of it in the direction of TDC.

After two hours of careful untangling I did manage to salvage the strewn skein, and the mud-soaked scarf part has dried and will be ok when all is said and done, but sheesh. Why’s it gotta be like that?
