Draconian sweater remediation
After cranking a few pairs of socks, finishing a pair by hand, and
doing a bit of spinning I got The Sweater out of time-out. Still couldn't match gauge in pattern on the second sleeve so I employed drastic measures: ripped the finished sleeve, knitted both sleeves in stockinette. With luck it'll look planned, as I intend to do a double garter ridge right around the whole thing when I finish the current repeat (not too far in the future) on the body, then finish the yoke in stockinette while I do the shoulder shaping. Ugh. At least the upper body/shoulders shouldn't bag - I'm still knitting a skosh on the tight side. +++++++++++++ Reply to the list as I do not publish an email address to USENET. This practice has cut my spam by more than 95%. Of course, I did have to abandon a perfectly good email account... |
