3/12/10: Tried knitting the first 4 rows of the pattern, 3x, to no avail; my stitch count is off every damn time. Harrumph. Setting aside (for now) in favor of stockinette socks with pretty stripes.

3/10/10: Posted to the thread to ask for help w/ the 2nd row of the chart; the designer replied & bailed my sorry ass out of trouble.

3/8/10: Knit cuff #1.

3/2/10: bought yarn from de-stashing Raveler Xandermommy
