Notes from the frog pond

The sweater of pink fuzzy Hello Kitty puke is no more. The yarn has taken its previous shape as a long straight line and no longer composes half of the front of a sweater. This thing was turning out waaaay too wide. If I do it again, it will be with twenty fewer stitches on the needle. If I do it again, it will be with the colors called for in the pattern. If I do it again, it will be punk rock.

I love pink, and I adore this yarn, but this project is the epitome of, 'Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.' If you Google 'pink fuzzy sweater' as an image search, 90% of the results are for dog sweaters. I think that alone shows why I should have never started this project in the first place.

Now I'm off to knit up a swatch for no particular reason! But only because I don't have the correct length of circular needle needed for Rogue.
