And the knit goes on, and on, and on.....

Well, the back is finished.  Yesterday, I started, restarted and re-restarted the left front.  Just finished the second go round of the pattern last night and realized I'd made a mistake so frogged it in the morning.  It's hard to keep to a pattern when you have multiple interruptions.  I don't mind them but do wish I had greater powers of concentration.

Did I mention that I don't do math?  Did I mention that I'm doing Kat's sweater without a pattern?  Did I mention that I'm completely nuts?

Yeah, well I thought I forgot to mention those things.  If this sweater comes out wearable, it will be nothing short of a world class miracle.  If I pull this off, I have promised myself, NEVER to do anything without a pattern again.  I doubt that will stick.  Anything that has any wiggle room for creativity, I'm a sucker for.  My mind just can't help following the "What if I .....fairy".  Did you know there are such faries?  Yep indeedy there sure are. ;-)

Fortunately, today went well.  I finished several repeats of the pattern.  Now I have to find out for certain, certain sure if I'm making it big enough.  I do have ideas for course correction if it's not.  I don't get to see them often so it's hard to remember how much they've grown.  I forgot to mention too that there are four of them to make sweaters for.  They chose their colors and I just happened to reach for the pink first.

It would be good to pause for pictures tomorrow so there's a visual to go along with all this chatter.
