Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did. ~Newt Gingrich
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. ~Albert Einstein
Sunday afternoon I grew frustrated with my knitting of the Scrawl on the Wall Shawl because I was trying to use a lace weight yarn and a novelty yarn and I kept having difficulties. The lace weight was too light and the novelty yarn too splitty. I must have frogged the same section of the shawl three or four times and finally put it up. Monday I attempted to add those two yarns to the shawl again and I had to frog it. Today I picked the shawl up and decided to try one more time with the lace weight and novelty yarns and I had no problems! Am I a persevering knitter or just plain insane?
