Gosh, I can't believe I can make so many mistakes in just one project.
After finishing seaming the arms I realized... this thing was supposed to be a cardigan and I had just joined the top part. Wow, unbelievable.
So I had to undo the seaming on the arms that I had just taken a decade finishing and frog the piece back to the neck opening. Which I did. Then I tried my hand at different neck styles. However, in the end, EZ's original design was the one I chose, cause its the best.
The teal yarn was over, so I went to Joan and bought a little red. I-cord with it really brings out the colors of the bog.
The yarn is so cuddly and soft that "A" wouldn't take it off so I could sew on the buttons. Look at him he is so happy.
Well finally, when he did decide to take it off, I finished sewing on the buttons. And what I saw was a beauty !!!
Except this beauty was noway a 3-6mths bog, Ha Ha ! More like a 1-3T size. The icing on the cake for all the mistakes on this project - didn't bother to check my gauge.
Oh well ! I can't remember the last time I had so much fun doing a project and not bother about the knitty gritties.
Good Knitting Times !

Oh, the red trim simply completes that bog!
ReplyDeleteI just love it in those colors! The red really was the perfect addition. And your boy looks like he's dispensing all kinds of wisdom. :)
ReplyDeleteNice work!
I nominated you for a Sunshine Award. Do with it what you will, just wanted you to know I enjoy reading your blog. I'm trying to knit my way through the Knitter's Almanac. Slow going, but instructive...
