I can’t tell you when I started knitting the Chevron Rib Tank<\/a>. I can tell you this though, I know I was still married at the time, because I remember working on it as a passenger in the car when my then husband was driving. Eventually, I finished knitting the thing, but by that time, it was too small for me. No fault of the knitting or the yarn, ahem<\/em>. In the last year, I have been running and trying to exercise more regularly and lost some of the weight that I had put on in the two years prior. When cleaning and accessing my belongings, recently, I came across this piece of knitting and felt brave enough to try it on. Lo and behold, it fit. I would have worn it the next day had the ends been woven in.<\/p>\n

So, I decided that before it becomes too cold to even think about a tank top that I would finish with the top already. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that it did not take me a bazillion years (or a trip to the store) to put my hands the appropriate needle for the task. Twenty minutes and several pounds later, I have a top that I can wear. Probably just once before the weather makes that prohibitive.<\/p>\n

Yea to finishing what you start!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
