..I had the body and 1 and a half sleeve finished and the edging started, so I was happily looking forward to maybe finishing her over the weekend. Then last night I pinned down the back for blocking ... there were some funny shades on the knitting ...
I HAD PICKED UP ONE BALL WITH A DIFFERENT DYE LOT !!!
And knitted it into the middle of the back, just above the decreases and finished the whole back without noticing it !
So now I'm back down to the decreases. I have already called my LYS (Wollmond) and luckily she has another ball with the right dye lot. Will you believe me if I swear that this has never never ever happend to me during, well, about 30 years of knitting !?! I'm still absolutely sure I checked the dye lot number on every ball - well, obviously I did not !
Back to knitting, see you all on Monday. Everybody have a great weekend with lots of knitting time. Greetings from Germany.
But still,even after the frogging, you are almost finished! Looking forward to see how much you have progressed during the weekend!
