I am having a dilemma. It seems that this beautiful sweater, which I should be wearing to work tomorrow, has morphed into a garment for an amazonian, body building arm wrestler! I'm not sure what I was thinking when I tried it on (multiple times!) How could I imagine that arm holes beginning mid rib cage were "a good close to the body fit?" Perhaps they are, just not on my body. I even got out the tape measure and measured both this sweater and one that fits well. Somehow I thought I was on the right track and kept on stitching! I even took pictures to document my progress! Thinking back , it was late when I did this and instead of reviewing my decision in the morning when I was alert, I just picked it up today and kept on going! And now, after trying it on to determine if the length is correct (it is - I think?) I can't imagine that I will ever wear this sweater with the arms in their current location! So I must decide if I will rip out all those rows I so lovingly stitched or if I'll go ahead and finish it off the way that it is and let it live forever in the wardrobe. I do love the yarn, and I really want to make a sweater that fits out of it. Is it possible?? Will the third time be the charm? Well, I'm not going to decide tonight! I'm going to put it aside until morning and then I'll figure it out. Because clearly I am not good at making decisions after 5pm! So until next time! Stitch & Read with Love!
