June 27 2009 Beware of All Enterprises

A knit group friend is pregnant with twins and had started a hat, though by following the pattern, it came out the size of the sweater. Being a new knitter, she wasn't sure how to turn it into a sweater, so I have taken on the challenge. I frogged some part of my design with this sweater, well, I can't tell how many times, but it was a lot, and the finishing has taken me much, much longer than I expected.

I didn't even have my glasses on this morning when I got up closer to the afternoon than I expected: I had 15 minutes left until my morning ended. It's okay, I spent that fifteen minutes working on the yoke for the sweater, and frogging it after I decided it was the wrong gauge. Better yet, I didn't count rows when I built the sleeves and after nearly finishing the yoke I finally counted the ribbing and discovered one sleeve was 10 rows too short. Being that it is variegated yarn, I have to be creative, but I am, and I am successful. I dare you to find, when this sweater is finished, which sleeve had been built short. I just dare you.
