Thank you dear readers for your supportive words about the veil and for all the other comments that you leave. I am rarely a commenter on blogs so am in no position to exhort others to comment on mine; however, that said - please do leave a comment some time as it is lovely to know that someone is out there, reading.
The marker problem on the veil - Lynn in Tucson, it is alas every marker (thirteen of them) on every fourth row. Now that I am using split stitch markers I should indeed be able to move them all before I start knitting the row obviating the need to do it as I go (thereby interrupting the flow of the knitting which is half the point of doing it, to be in the flow). Thank you Leonie for the suggestion! I might also try Rachel's suggestion of using a length of unwaxed dental floss as a running stitch marker - I knew there was a reason I had some of that in the cupboard. My dentist will be pleased to know that I have found a use for it - I'm visiting him this afternoon ...

Aaaah...well that does sound tedious! I'm knitting Hanami (have been for years, now) which has that problem, but only on 2 or 3 rows out of twenty-something. (Can you tell it's been a while since I've looked at it?) My peeve with that pattern is that, while the directions do tell you that the decreases jump a marker occasionally, it _doesn't_ tell you on which rows it does so! Thank goodness for Ravelry!
p.s. Genius, that Rachel!
Glad to help. Anything to keep the knitting going :-)
