Knit with Reynolds "Tucson", 7 balls.....size 6 cnylon circs-thank you , Cindy!- I was really cranking on this and just knitted away night after night...completely clueless...IT"S TOO FRICKIN" HUGE!!!!!!!! I lost my mind when I tried it on...why, oh, why, hadn't I measured the gauge????!!!!!! It will be visiting the frog pond when I have the heart and strength to rip it out. And, if that wasn't enough, I found a cutie on the garnstudio site, I immediately cast on for it, only to discover that no yarn and no size needle in my stash would work...again, too big! My mojo is so off....
What does a knitter do? Not stand defeated...I cast on for another project in the queue..the Knit1 tunic from fall 2007. The downside is that like a fool I decided to go ahead and use LB 'Wool-ease". That stuff pills like a mother, but I'm running with it...(uh..it wasn't even stash yarn, but since it was cheap...I cheated) Here's a WIP photo for ya..My only mod is to do it on circs since I hate seaming, and quite frankly, my seaming looks like dog doo. Anyhoo, it's zipping along, and my mojo, although squashed, has rebounded. Once this is completed, it'll be a heyday to see what I do next. I will say, that I know this about myself, I absolutely have to be inspired to take a project to completion. Next time I will show you one of the oldest wips that suddenly inspired me again!
