Today I uploaded my Michelin Man sock pattern to Knitty. And what do I worry about? Getting responses like "File too big" or "Missing X info". Nothing about "We don't want this pattern". Guess I've submitted enough fiction to magazines and publishers to understand "NO!"
The secret of success finally clicked with me the other day. Like the kid on the commercial trying to put a square peg in a round hole: "Just keep hittin' it!" If this pattern doesn't fly, then maybe Viking Formal (aka Frogger) will. Or St. Brendan's Fair Isle. Or something.
Meanwhile I walk the floor unable to settle down to anything specific. So...I blog.
Measured The Shuj's foot today 'cause my next project will be socks for him. I had decided from measuring my own foot that the length, ankle, instep, ball would all measure the same. Not so! His foot is 9.5" long, 8.25 at the instep, and 8.5 at the ankle. Will have to measure more feet before I make any ponderous statements in patterns...
