So I've discovered a few holes where I accidentally did my increases backwards.  What should I do with them?  Fill them in with yarn patches?  (I could, I have a crochet hook.)  Ignore them and hope it comes right when blocking?  (I doubt that very much, unless I accidentally felt it.)  At any rate, I'm resolved to be more careful in the future but that really proves nothing.  Although I did fix the light bulb so I can see clearly again.

Based on the Loretta Lynn pattern from Berroco and being crafted on request from the Dragon Elf God for the Book Elf Queen.

So far, I have one skein done, three mistakes (that I've caught) and half the cowl neck done:

The stitch markers are there because I keep losing count and stitches keep going MIA.  They weigh a ton compared to the KnitPicks Andean Silk that I am using.  Also, it appears that I have a sensitivity to merino wool (which I always suspected) but it's not as bad as I thought it would be.  I think I'll get over it.  It doesn't make my throat or nose swell up (like pure wool does), it just makes my skin itch a little.  It was worse when I first started working, but it's getting better now so I think I'll be okay.  And finally, I'm out of black teabags.  Which means I have to make loose tea.  Oh the horror.

Ok, so the last time I picked this up I started working in the wrong direction.  THANKS PHONE!

So this time I looked at it, tried to see if I could fix it, decided I hated it.  Ripped it out and started all over.  Well, I will.  You know, when I get a round tuit.

If you were a just out of college admin assistant, which set of jewelry would you rather get as a present, this:

Or this:

Hrmm....

I don't need any more red silk yarn!  HELP!  SOMEONE STOP ME!
