Notes

I will write about this as part of the Gauge the Situation series on my blog: http://line4line.blogspot.com

I should frog this. The yarn really isn’t up to this sweater. I really disliked working with this yarn. Maybe I’d like it better if I turned into an accessory.

This yarn was such a terrible disappointment - and so expensive. It totally felted together and it’s SO weak that trying to unknit this sweater, post blocking, was impossible. I will NEVER work with it again…
