ripping day

Ripping can be frustrating....at our house it's either "unknitting"
or DH notices that I'm 'frogging' rip-it, rip-it...

Why don't you like the term "Frogging", Mirjam? TO me it is more gentle
than "ripping".

I'm having one of those evenings. I've been working on the shawl for my
sister, and first I messed up one row, tried to tink it back, and have
messed up a second row. I can see I'm going to have to put in some
lifelines on this shawl. Grrrrrrr. It was going quite well for a while.

Plus - my hands are really dry and messy from working outside. I have this
ground in dirt in my right index finger, and am catching the fine yarn on my
dry fingers. (growl).

Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

The moebius sounds beautiful Mirjam, you always come up with such
creative ideas and make such one-of-a-kind things! Your friend will
love it.
Shelagh- I have the same problem with the dry peeling skin on my
fingers. I manage a floral shop right next to a hospital and 3 elderly
care centers (Really busy all the time!). The skin on my fingers
splits, cracks, peels, snags you name it! When I remember I use a
thick cream called body butter on them or if desperate vaseline and
bandaids and surgical tape depending how bad the splits are. Now the
cold weather is coming and I'll really have problems.
I'm working on a shawl for my sister too, it's done in a little
shell pattern. When I see how far I still have to go, I feel like
tossing it outside for the dog to sleep on LOL.

Hallo Katherine , after i wrote it , as it came from my deepest
feelings i had to think about it, maybe it is a matter of this sound ,
in Hebrew Ripping sound more gentle and less Alarming than Frog .
mirjam

Rip-rip-rip-rip... is the sound you hear...when you rip..
...often it is very annoying, but after you have done it, and you start
on a "new" OK work, I ofter feel a relief! new start, problems
eliminated!
Thus: Rip-rip-rip... a nice sound !
Frog...Well, I am not an expert in English,and the word may have more
than one meaning, but I always think about a FROG, and that has nothing
with my knitting to do!LOL!
Therefore I agree with Mirjam, ripping is a nicer word to me too!

When ever someone says frog I always think of the fairy tale where a
princess kisses a frog.

How funny, Mirjam! In English, "frogging" sounds more gentle than
"ripping".
