This week has been a bit...off.
I honestly wasn't sure until just a few minutes ago why. Father's Day was Sunday. It's a great thing and my Dad was the king of dads. I was one of the lucky ones whose Dad was the best, the rock, the good side of things...'cept my Dad...is no longer around.
It's been weeks of Father's Day email and advertisement reminders of just that fact.
Also, I just realized that while steadily knitting away on the front of the nbat, that it seemed narrow, so I stopped and took a measurement...Hmm. Close, but it felt a bit smaller than the back. It wasn't until I started knitting the 24th row of the waist when I thought to count the stitches. I swore I had the right number when I started, so why count them along the way?
DOH. 2 stitches short. TWO. I had been knitting all of this time, two stitches short. Disgusted, I frogged the entire front and started on the sleeve. It made me smile. Take a look.
You know how I adore cake. 'nuff said.
I'm sorry this week has been hard.
You seem to be living up to your blog name these days 'eh? But how do you make ripping seem so zen? ;)
