Kal...

Today was a crazy day at my knitting group. Three of us are working on the February Lady Sweater for the knit along and that's going pretty good. The other two are working on the #85 wavy vest, which I decided to attempt to make at the same time as the other sweater. Well, I'm not sure how well this is going to work out. The pattern is 12 pages with every row written out in detail, which is good. But, wrapping my brain around the 20 stitch repeat pattern is another story. I've ripped out two times now, 3rd times a charm right? I hope so... I know some of the stitches I did backwards but it seems to look somewhat OK. Should I keep going or should I start over? I'm afraid to do another 8 row repeat for fear that my mistakes will look even worse. Oh what to do, what to do. I don't think I like this "challenge yourself" thing. I already have problems with finishing projects and I would hate for this one to be frogged. After all, it is a really pretty pattern. I think I'll cross my fingers and keep the needles going. After all, I do have that new year's resolution I need to stick to. Wish me luck!
