Frogging

Lisa's beret is almost finished. Just a couple of minor additions to finish it off. About 9 hours of knitting but happily no frogging (knitting/crochet lingo for undoing the knitting).

My crocheted top however is not doing anywhere near as well. I just can't seem to get the fabric to look right. I've unpicked the waist section three times since yesterday and it's a little frustrating. I could go on but then I'd have to live with knowing and being able to see the faults in the top everytime I wore it and that would drive the perfectionist in me nuts. I'm getting good at frogging.

I'm currently armed with the 2006 edition of the Lonely Planet's Europe on a Shoestring book and I've almost made it through the "A" countries. Favourite so far is Andorra which seems like a cool mix between France and Spain. I also think we'd be able to afford some time there which is even cooler.

You see the way I figure it, if I can keep the excitement of travel in the foreground of my mind then I'm more likely to be able to save. If it's tangible then I'll save better. It's worth a try right?
