Notes

1.15.11 Working/tentative title: Ingrid. I haven’t started knitting or writing the pattern yet, but it’s due in less than 1 month! I must finish the other 2 secret projects (due 2.1.11) before I even start this one.

2.2.11 I had worked up to a few rows short of the start of the armhole shaping. When I counted my sts, I realized that I was missing 2. One occurred 4 rows down, when I forgot to increase. The other error took a little longer to diagnose. It turns out that I accidentally did a p2tog 18 rows down. I could’ve tried to fudge it, but I knew it would bother me forever, so I ripped all 18 rows-- that’s 3136 sts. It wasn’t the easiest rip either, because I was working off of 3 balls of yarn so preventing yarn barf was crucial.

2.3.11 back on track!

2.7.11 Am progressing slower than I thought. I had to set this aside for a couple of days to work on some stuff that had to go to the printer in time for Stitches West. Am done with back. Need to work on Front & sleeves. Sorry but I can’t share anything but a teaser photo until the pattern is published in the magazine.

2.14.11 Finito! I finished and blocked yesterday. Today, my friend Zona helped me with taking some photos while Rachel modeled. Very sad to let this one go, but not that sad since the sample is too small for me to squeeze into anyways.
