I bet ya’ll showed up to hear about how I totally kicked that orange sweater’s butt and how it’s totally awesome and finished and wonderful.
I’m just going to be honest, if that’s the reason you came here today, you’re probably going to be disappointed.
The state of the orange sweater is as follows:
Instead, after realizing that my gauge for dpns is far larger than for the circulars I was knitting the rest of the sweater in, I ripped out the sleeve and started on a new sweater entirely.
Luckily, it looks like I do have a snowball’s chance in hell of actually finishing this one before the weekend.
What are you knitting this week?

I am not confident enough, nor brave enough to attempt a large piece of clothing yet! I think your new sweater is stunning!
What’s the worst that could happen? You learn a few things and the yarn can always be re-used 😀 Go try a sweater!!
I hate when that happens. Sometimes it helps to take a break & start something new – and that new sweater looks super cozy!
It totally helps to take a break sometimes, recuperate and refresh! Hopefully this sweater will be done in a few days – added benefit of larger needles!
