You can always have one more...

I have determined that I am an ADD craft person. I don't like working on just one project. 5 projects are good and 10 projects are even better. Of course, this means that I jump around from item to item, but hey, it's what makes me happy. Oh, and being a teacher isn't so great sometimes but summer vacation really rocks.

I've been diligently (well somewhat) working on the Diagonal Rib Top. I can only work on it for so long at a time because row after row of knit and purl is Deadly Dull. Anyway, here is where I'm at:

And yes, there is a problem. What is it? Well, there are two problems really. And, no it's not the fit. The thing fits great and I really like the way it looks. But it is TOO SHORT and I know that it will bug me, and that I will not wear it, and then all my work will be wasted.

The 2nd thing is that the neckline is really low. Which would be fine if I was going to to a club, but since I want to wear this for work and during the day, I need to raise the neckline.

So, I've got to rip it back all the way to the neckline and then do more rows and then start over with the whole division thing, etc. What really makes me crazy here is that I already had extra rows but in a fit of insanity decided to rip them out. So, now I have to rip back so I can re-knit the rows I already knit and ripped out. I'll be happier though so it just has to happen.

I then cast on for this for solace.

It's Poplar and Elm, a very nice openwork lace cardigan. I'm doing it in Rowan Bamboo Soft which is very nice and soft. Super drape.

What about those other projects? Oh, they are all still on the needles. I'm working on the felted slipper sets (I have two more sets to complete before the end of July) and the Clapotis has been relegated to my "take-along" knitting since I don't have to count it, don't need to finish a row to know where I am and I don't need the pattern for quite some time. And yes, row after row of stockinette is again, Deadly Dull,  So, it's perfect for the project that I won't mess up as I sit and chat or that I do a few stitches/rows on here and there.
