But sometimes you just have to know when to call it quits and if you are no longer feeling the love and you don't think the size will work out, then you made the right decision. It's very pretty yarn, I would frog it and knit a nice shoulder scarf for yourself. <br /><br />I think tonight it's time you get pickled and frog that babyMr Puffy's Knitting Blog:https://www.blogger.com/profile/10129149473915655930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32972710.post-78620096178033168412010-09-10T15:49:23.411-04:002010-09-10T15:49:23.411-04:00Oh no!

I think you did everything right, and you shouldn't look at this like a failure -- I think this is a "those crazy kid's" sweater that's supposed to be worn too small - and that in actuality, you are the complete SUCCESS for determining thisWendyhttp://www.365.lemontines.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32972710.post-16381312482120411812010-09-10T08:25:55.003-04:002010-09-10T08:25:55.003-04:00You will rise above this, just as I will someday m...You will rise above this, just as I will someday make my husband that sweater that I promised him before we got married.Mariehttp://www.catsandbooksetc.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32972710.post-86867215475040562822010-09-09T23:49:19.963-04:002010-09-09T23:49:19.963-04:00Did you wash your swatch before you measured it?
