I screw up. At the raglan increase lines, I stopped letting those 7 stitches build up in that pretty little arrow shape they made. I have no idea why I did this other than to allow myself to pound my head against a brick wall. There are 4 increase areas and 3 of them are absolutely great, but one section is a ...well I am just going to not say what I think of this section. The words I am using inside my head are not at all ladylike.
I am very close to ripping back to where I made the change. Meantime, it is in a bit of a time out. A short one, for sure, because otherwise, I am having so much fun with this knit. It is lovely and rhythmic and just a delight.
Today is not the day that will happen. Today I am going to knit on found things.
When I was trying to decide what would be up next, I thought it would be a good idea to dig in my new WIP bins. I must stop and say that these work wonderfully well for me.
I went through them, looking at what was in them, and pulling out all the yarn bits and ends that need to be put away. I came across this sock in progress. I think I had these on my blog but I had completely forgotten them. Which was rather silly of me. I love these!
The bands of blue and speckled and green make me giddy. This is what I am knitting on this morning. I am also really enjoying how there are 2 very different sizes of needles being used here and how it doesn't seem to matter. Bets on that I couldn't find a 5th of the same size when I started the pair and just knit anyway.
So today, one screw up that works and one that doesn't. And that strikes me as a good average in the land of my knitting.
