Here is an update on the linen clutch. I am 3 inches from finishing the front. I switched back to the old bernat aluminum straight needles and finally seem to have found some kind of rhythm . It is still not speedy knitting . The tip of my left finger is kind of sore from struggling with this double strand ,knit two together in back of stitch pattern, but I soon will be done with the herringbone stitch and on with good old stockinette stitch. The herringbone pattern that this stitch forms is nice so it is probably worth the trouble.
Usually when I complain about a project this much in the end I want to make another one.

Thanks for the update! I'm sure it'll be worth it. That's what I've been counting on this whole time.
With the look of your project, I've been contemplating changing yarns to one that looks more fibrous (straw-like). If only I didn't attempt to start mine so close to the holiday knitting...
I can't wait to see it!
