I don't really have good news today :\ ... Remember my WIP Granny Square Purse? I've been showing you the "making of" here and here. Well, yesterday I worked on it during the AMAZING but dirty WC game. After the game, it was time for me to start making the handles. Ok, I started crocheting them stitch after stitch. It was when I was crocheting the last two handles that I realized that... I didn't like the purse anymore. I had mixed some colors in the middle, I thought a pretty line of bluish-greens would look nice across the purse and that it would add an interesting detail... Well, my "interesting detail" became an "EWW detail" to me... I hated it!!! It looked so... ugly!!! So I decided to undo it :\ just to take the color yarn OUT!... So this time is just going to be a beige bag... solid beige no "interesting detail" on it...
Here I had finished the mega-granny square...
Here's one handle ready!!!
Two handles ready!!! I thought... Yay!!! I'll be done soon!!! :\ I guess I was wrong, but you know what? I rather undo it and make something I LOVE! than to make something I would never wear or use... right?
You can see it's starting to take shape...
... and here, I stopped and said... I don't like it!!?!!?!!
But do you like the shape? I think it would turn out pretty :)
Here's how it looks now... a lot of rows smaller...
So I learned from this experience that it's better to take a little more time in making something you'll adore at the end, than something that would end up stored in some closet or drawer until you'll get rid of it... It would be a waste of time and yarn, don't you think?
