There once was a sweater. It had a body, arms and a yoke on it's way to being finished. The owls were half way done when a funny looking stitch was spotted.
Without thinking I tinked back to that stitch and came across something I've never seen before. So I tinked back more stitches and was once again stumped.
I couldn't understand why the yarn came from the left then went back the same direction.
So I decided to rip back completely to that spot to reknit. As I was pulling out the circular, the piece that attaches the needle tip to the cable broke.
As colorful words started to spew out of my mouth I realized that the funky stitch that I saw was a wrapped stitch from the short row shaping. I created this huge mess for nothing. I blame the mass amounts of sugar I consumed that day.
Needless to say, the owl sweater is in time out.
Oh no! Silly short row.
ReplyDeleteIs that needle a knit picks one? That's why I'm scared to buy more than a few. I hear it happens alot, and it terrifies me...
(PS- If you don't get a ton of comments, it may be because blogger has some funky firefox/google account bug when they are imbedded on the page like this. I had to come over to IE, and use the name/url comment)
darling, that sucks pom poms!
