Two Steps Forward … You Know The Rest

Yup, that’s what’s been happening here. I didn’t realize how frustrated I was until …

I was knitting away on my Build a Better V and everything was going well until I ran out of navy yarn. Yes, arggh, right after knitting one sleeve I realized I didn’t have enough to do a second sleeve. OK, normally that doesn’t bother me that much. I can regroup. I found some yellow wool and made the second sleeve.

Great. I’m happy with that. Then … I tried to unravel the first sleeve and couldn’t do it very easily because of the cast off I used. So, I got the scissor out and I cut it off.

I never do this. I would normally have worked on that cast off edge and unraveled the entire sleeve. I’m not even that upset about this particular sweater. My general frustration is compounded by several projects that are not going well.

I am now working on the second sleeve. I’m astonished at myself. I obviously need to take a vigorous walk or something.

If you want to hear the whole sorry story, here is my youtube podcast.

I’ll be back on track really soon. Cheers, Deb
