I consider myself a pretty smart person. I learn fast and have a tremendous capacity to multitask (they call it “bandwidth” these days). But one lesson I simply cannot learn is that I like ombre yarn in a ball and hate it when it’s knitted up. Why can’t I remember it? Why do I set myself up for the same disappointment over and over again? I have a strong appreciation for self-striping yarns these days, but those ombres…uh uh. Maybe I need to put a sticky note reminder on my credit card.
