Labyrinth Finished! Happy 33rd to me!
Unbeknownst to me, without any intention to do so whatsoever, I managed to finish the final touches on my labyrinth just as the clock was turning over to my 33rd birthday. Fun. huh?! Anyhow, just thought I'd share. Here's a pic of front and back. The back shows a few mistakes and the front shows that I knit quite a bit tighter int he middle than the ends. Oh well - maybe some light blocking will help with that (what do you think..would it help?!)
All in all, I'm really happy with it.
Grace and Peace,
`tim

If it keeps the dimensions
If it keeps the dimensions that I've blocked it to it'll be 22x22 inches.
I didn't plan on a particular size, that's just what it came out as.

Just wanted to throw in that
Just wanted to throw in that it probably isn't your tension causing to pull in in the center but the nature of the stranded color work itself. The center pull in because that is where the bulk of the stranded section is, the rows with less color changes have less pull.
It looks great.
Someone else told me the
Someone else told me the same thing about the stranding. I blocked it today, I think it'll hold its shape -- it didn't take a lot of work to pin it down.

Happy birthday. Your
Happy birthday. Your labyrinth looks good. Stranded knitting can take some getting used to, I'm on my third Fair Isle sweater and still have problems with the tension. Still, it's the journey, not the destination...

Anyway, fantastic work on the labyrinth. It is definitely a very interesting design, and I shudder to think of all the effort that went into the wrong side rows. Are you thinking about it for wall hanging?
