First, thanks to my super-reporter, dirt-finder friend, check out these pants (and the scarf? sweater? shorts? right after). Inspiring? Heck yeah! I bet that tape hurt....
Now business: I'm almost done with one sleeve for Tim's horse (for some reason, Hjalte sounds like horse to me this morning) sweater. The thing is, as I was taking pictures, I realized I knitted the main part too far and should have started the sleeve cap section an inch ago. Arg.
And the thing is, because I converted the knit-flat-sleeve-cap directions to knit-in-round-while-planning-to-work-sleeve-cap-in-flat directions, my gauge is off. Bottom line is that the stitch count is a mess and I need to spend some major time figuring out how to fix this thing.
ARG!!! Fixing things at work is troublesome enough. Fixing things with my knitting is more frustrating.
Can't I just knit stupid blankets and scarfs? Even shawls where the gauge is not that important. Yeesh...
Here are pictures of the sleeve.
There are actually 2 mistakes (the first and more minor one being it's an inch too long right now).
Can you spot the 2nd and more major mistake?
