one month and one week of my life
Notes to self:
* my techniques of measuring and sizing could use some refinement
* UPDATE: blocking can heal many wounds (see above)
* cables all but knit themselves, but be careful not to become too complacent over that fact
* cabling without a cabling needle!
* gauge, gauge, gauge (the sweater had three starts)
* read the pattern carefully before working 3 inches of ribbing in the wrong rib (see above)
* seams can be tolerable to sew and might even turn out well
* some system of ensuring the identity of two identical but separately knit items should be adopted
raglan seams are usually where i falter
I think all in all, the biggest triumph of this sweater is one of the little things…
look, i basted the seams! my grandmother would be so proud.
