In preparation for Stitches West – I’m pretty sure I’m going next weekend – I decided to inventory all my needles. This took longer than it should, because I’m pretty disorganized when it comes to my needles and this inventory turned up some still missing.
The setback: I discovered that after all my careful swatching and swatch-washing and gauge measuring… I cast on using the wrong size needles. Ugh. The good news? I was only on round 18. So back to the beginning on the gloves, but I’m not feeling defeated (yet).
You have a much better attitude than I do about such setbacks! In the end, the gloves will be well worth it, and this early frustration will be long forgotten. I won’t even remind you of it when I see your gloves, so that it can STAY forgotten! 🙂
