Ugh

and we cycle back to startitis. Well finishitis was bound to be short lived anyway. I started my Leitmotif Cardigan and have realized that my gauge must be way off so I am going to need to rip and restart...ugh. I got pretty far too so thats a little frustrating. Its not a hard pattern to get into though so I'm not too worried. I am setting it aside for now though b/c I can't look at it. It's making me angry, lol.

Instead my new plan is to take a sweater break and go back to socks. I wanted to make my brothers both a pair of socks for christmas anyway so I may as well start those. Maybe the Cardigan can be my travel project or something. I definitely need to do a gauge swatch though.... Other than all that the stash busting exercise is underway. My craft corner of the office will finally start to downsize hopefully. Not that I don't like having a nice little yarn collection but it looks really cluttered right now which is really annoying me. I don't generally buy yarn (except sock yarn) unless I have a pattern picked out for it. Otherwise it tends to sit in the basket unused....

Anyway I am off to cast on for some socks.
