After writing the post yesterday I went and had a good nap. And then a little later, I had another. I felt pretty logy and sluggish and just not right. I think the viruses are ganging up on me.
Anyway, I did knit in the between naps time. I should have chosen to work on the sleeves. I didn't, because I didn't have the energy to flip the tunic back and forth for those first early rows. Once a sleeve is long enough, you can do a lot of knitting while the sleeve twists, before you have to turn it, but i n the early stages, no getting out of it. You have to turn it every round.
I picked up the wrap instead. Bad move. You can see what happened.
I missed the last set of rows stepping down on the pattern. I think I only noticed because I was debating bed or watch another movie and was holding the piece out and away so I could see how the almost complete set of 3 repeats of the pattern looked in relation to the other pattern.
When I saw the error, I gave up and went to bed. In truth, I am just relieved I noticed it before I was into a new pattern! Note to self, if you don't feel well, pick up socks to work on, not the patterned project.
Today will be better, right? Yes. It will.
