i'm finally done with the clap!

clapotis, she is finit! and i'm glad of it. i really didn't like knitting the clappy, which is probably why i put it down for six months. i didn't like the endless stockinette; i didn't like the dropping of the stitches (except that they marked another repeat gone, which was good); and it sucked in a ton of yarn that i had to special order from overseas. i'm pretty sure i didn't do all the straight rows but don't know for sure because that's where i left off six months ago and didn't even mark it down. and you know what's more? i don't even wear wraps. what came over me to knit such a monster? i have NO idea. it has become my clapenstein!

oh well, i think i might use it as a portable blanky, or a really big scarf. the first picture is right side out, the second is wrong side out, and the last one is a detail shot of the stitching.

I love the colour :) I think that your suggestion of a portable blankie is the only thing which'll convince ME to knit it, haha ;)
