Fig and Plum:

Crap.

You know how sometimes, you're not paying attention for a while? Like maybe, for a couple of days?

Yeah. Like that. (Who sees the trouble? Hint: It's not the wonkiness of the stitches, it's more fundamental)

Aaaanyway. I had decided to add a repeat to the leafy vine pullover, since it was looking a mite short.

My reward for being ambitious, and for knitting in tiny fits and starts on the train, is a nice solid chunk of delicate frogging. Sigh.

That is the most beautiful part of a sweater that I've ever seen. Akh, I feel covetous.

If it's any consolation, it's looking mightily gorgeous so far!

I can't tell what's wrong either!

Me neither!

The leaf stem is coming out of the wrong side of the stalk.

oh no! bummer :( but at least you noticed it within 6 rows or so!

Can't you just drop down those offending stitches to switch the side of the branch? It will tidy up with blocking, and I'm always looking for the easy way out, especially if it will be some very delicate frogging.

BUMMER! D: Sorry to hear about that, doesn't make it any better to know that we ALL have done the exact same thing.

Oops. That vine's gone astray. Dropping down and fixing that section shouldn't be *too* bad, and at least it's a worsted-weight redo in a not-so-lace-intensive section.

Design element! Design element!

But yah, frogging lace sucks.

I love this leave design...what pattern is it please?

Posted by: Marianne at May 17, 2008 11:44 AM

Is that something you've designed or is it available somewhere already? It's lush!! X

Buildings are not cheap and not everyone can buy it. Nevertheless, loans was created to support different people in such cases.
