A blog about my life, knitting, and other stuff.

Saturday

I cut out on the family to head back to Weaving Works. They got the Debbie Bliss Silk Alpaca book in and I wanted to get it while the sale is still on. Some Silver Plum Cotton Fleece also followed me home. It was 30% off. I was defenseless. I think I will use it for Paula.

I finished the second sleeve for Sam this morning. I sewed the shoulders together and picked up all the stitches to knit the collar. Both fronts are completely wrong. They look terrible and it does not resemble the pattern at all. I need to rip them out completely and do them again. However, I can't face this right now. I have come to hate this sweater and we need a little time apart. I will shove Sam in the back of a dark closet until I'm feeling some enthusiasm again.
