I think the Evil Knitting Fairy is messing with Loden Mist.
I did a swatch, I swear. I started knitting away on the US 8 circ and 3 inches in, the thing was 2 inches wider than it was supposed to be. I ripped it out and started again on a 7. Now I feel like I’m stretching it within an inch of it’s life to get it to the correct width. I was going to rip it out and go back to the 8 but I’m going to go ahead and finish this and see how it really blocks out. One of three things is going to happen.
1) I have to rip it all out
2) I have to buy another ball of KSH when number 1 goes terribly wrong
3) It blocks out perfectly. (Stop laughing!)
Three cheers for superglue! The garage door is happy once again. I got a refund for the caulk job, though it does mean I may have to fix it myself. And the problem that caused the water spot on the ceiling (not the roof thank goodness) will be fixed on Friday. The Man comes in on Friday too. Happy Dance!
