January 18
Hi there, Internet.
I missed you over the weekend, but I was busy.

You see I have been making the boy a sweater….for Christmas.
Yes, Christmas.
Yes, I gave it to him unfinished.
Yes, I’m a bad mother.
So I get to almost finished with it, only to realize that I messed it up.
So now I get to FROG it down to the arm pits…
He might get it before next winter.
.

So, when do I get my socks?

That would be my story, if I were a knitter. ;>
It’s a great sweater!

Hehe! Sounds like the afghan I crocheted for my brother one Christmas – um, I still haven’t given it to him.

Hey you should rip the whole thing out and start all over again. Why you ask? It should be scarlet and gray not blue and that other color. We are Buckeyes here!

Somehow I just knew I’d get a comment like that from you.

Hey at least you knew you would hear from me!!! It is way to fun to tease you about this.

I doubt I could ever do that. I have zero patience for the whole knitting thing (and sewing too)–I’d rather make a french tart.

What’s wrong with it? Couldn’t you adjust the boy instead? lol

Beautiful sweater, sorry that you are going to have to frog it, I really hat that. I am impressed though as I would not attempt a sweat in crochet let alone knit.

I spent my weekend working on a sweater that I am knitting for the third time. The first time I knitted it in size 2x and I only wear a 10/12. Knitting is SO relaxing isn’t it?

Yikes! It drives me crazy when something like that happens. I agree with Peggy, those color might be the problem. (hee hee)

It was the annual joke at Christmas on who would get the unfinished gift from my aunt. Without fail, my daughter got it this year.
