All thumbs today
Today hasn't been a good day to start a new project. Finally got a good foundation row but had miscounted the # needed and couldn't remove the extra stitches because the strands of yarn knotted up. Not funny! (except I can see humor in it now that I'm sharing). Then I started another pattern stitch and decided not to do it after all. Start, rip, start, rip, just not a good day.
The good news is I sold a sweater and she wants another one in aqua.:D

That's ok. Everybody is all thumbs or has a time when it is rip, stitch, rip , stitch at some time or other. It's nice to know I'm not the only one. Congrats on the sale of the sweater and the order for another one.

Hi Joyce! I had that problem the other day! I was trying to make an outfit for a 5" doll and it kept coming out too big! It was in a book of patterns for all different sized dolls, the size of hook and yarn determine the size! After 3 tries I gave up and made a dress with a different pattern! Some days you're the pigeon and some days you're the statute!!! Am glad you sold a sweater! They are beautiful sweaters!

Thanks for the laugh about the pigeon and statue!
-
Thank you, dear k. Ditto about making some money!
-
Thank you, Irish. I'm glad I'm not alone at times like this!

Hi Ooh-lala, had a peek at your lovely Etsy shop, couldn't find what type of yarn the items are made from. It's probably there as I am noted for not seeing what's under my nose!
Love the aqua colour

Glad your thumbs day turned into a good day after all...

The two sweaters that have sparkle are made from Red Heart's Shimmer. The white lacy open front sweater is I Love This Yarn sport weight. The white tube tee is Simply Soft, and the gray open front sweater is also Simply Soft. I'm going to recheck and make sure I put the yarns in there. Thanks for asking. Oh yeah, the teal shawl which in real life is darker than the picture shows, is also Simply Soft.
