Don't Talk to me Knitting

This knitting has been on the go for over 2years! It is eventually going to be a shawl with a lovely lacy pattern that I found somewhere on the internet. I bought this wool a few years ago from a knitting and stitching show but I don't remember which one now. It came with a free pattern which was abandoned after a few attempts at knitting hexagons only to find that at the end with a few dropped stitches it all unraveled :-(

This pattern is not really any easier - I find that I can knit one row and then unpick three - including ones which had previously been right - I am now learning that is the nature of lacy knitting - easy to drop the yrn and yfwd so you end up with the wrong number of stitches. Not much has been done on this shawl as I find I cannot knit it when the TV is on, the light is poor or as the title says - anyone is talking to me.

Sadly that seems to be the way it is with my knitting at the moment - just knitted two rows of the jumper and having to unpick those too.

Still never mind - hopefully this time next week some progress will have been made.
