Deep breath, sigh…I am discovering that I am having a lot of trouble with this ring spinning (I type all day at work) and I’m actually wondering if the knife edge is bothering me. Of course with the stone being 2.538 carats, it is top heavy.
I’m going to try to get used to it, but it’s very hard to type at work and keep it upright. I’ve tried adding a 2mm band to see if that helps and I don’t like the way it looks with my WB and ER, and it didn’t really seem to help anyway. I fear if I size it down at all, there are going to be times that it will be too tight since I tend to swell throughout the day.
I should have stayed with my original plan of finding a wider shank setting, as that has been more successful for me in the past, but I thought this would be so pretty…and it seems like all the settings are thinner shanks these days, so I do have to say I was swayed by that.
I know my husband is going to think I’m crazy, I know you’re probably not going to have any suggestions or words of wisdom, I guess I just wanted to vent about my frustration to those who may understand…
