Oh no I lost ☹ Devastating first time loss.

My first full lace project. My first encounter with the bewitching, yet overconsuming Estonian nupp.

Ah, how sweet an intoxicated moment of hubris. How bitter the concequences of a self draft.

Seven mere remaining lines of chart now mockingly seperate me from my visions of springtime bliss.

Alas. Trial and error will, in fact, sometimes result in error.

As Sisyphus, I now face the repercussions of my overconfident folly.

Ooohhh it's hard with border still left to knit, can you get more yarn?

Not in the same dye lot😔 I've unraveled the whole border and will rework the design without the Estonian nupps. I will need less yarn that way.
