It has spent a good amount of time resting, but I've started working on it more in the last month. So after writing last week's Fiber Arts Friday post, I decided to figure out what needed to happen in order to accomplish this goal.
Here's my thought process:
With a finished length of 60 inches, a current length of 11.5 inches, and 18 weeks until the county fair, I need to add at least three inches of length each week.
The scarf is made up of two sections; (1) a 10-row, length-adding section, and (2) a short-row, wedge section that adds the ripples of the rill.
Each 10-row section is just under one inch. Each short-row section does not add length.
If I average one section per night, I would average just under 3.5 inches per week. Which would allow the scarf to be completed in time to enter it in the county fair.
I'm not sure I can maintain that pace for 4.5 months. Also I'm not sure how interesting a scarf will be 3.5 inches at a time, for 4.5 months. ;-)
I still have shedding season to finish up, shearing season to come, lots of skirting, the Tour de Fleece, planting season, and a few dogs shows, between now and early August.
So I think it's unlikely that this scarf will be finished in time for the county fair, especially since I only added one inch since I wrote last weeks' Rill Scarf post. ;-/
How do you plan your fiber-y goals?
Happy Fiber Arts Friday!
