Troubles and More Troubles

Some sweaters are just more trouble than others. Take this one for instance. Do you see the stripe running through the middle of it? What the heck happened there? This is the third time I have had trouble with Debbie Bliss yarn. You would think with the price you pay for Debbie Bliss it wouldn't have these problems. So I unraveled and reknit it and now both fronts look ok but the back is not as long as the front. I don't think I can blame that on Debbie! So I will have to rip it open and knit another inch or so. I work on this sweater a little bit and then I put it away when my temper gets the better of me!

Jan, that is so dis-heartening! All that beautiful knitting! You are right, that should not happen! I love the colour, so I hope it works out in the end.

Things like that are as bad as finding a knot in a ball of "premium" yarn that I have paid a "premium" price. That is a pretty color, though.

Didn't you have another problem in the last 6 months with dye lots that were supposed to be the same but weren't.... not fun.
Glad you are back.

Hooray! Just seen you're back. Hope you're well.

I agree with you, Debbie Bliss yarn is expensive and therefore should be perfect, or at least not have a stripe of a different shade in it! How annoying. Good luck with doing something with it!

Yay! I just realised that you joined our silver belle kal! See you over there!
