I'm still plugging away on my son's sweater but I've run into a dilemma. In finishing the first sleeve I ran into an area where some serious pooling started to take place. I saw it there, plain as day. But you know how it goes, you think "Next row, it'll stop...okay next row...okay next row is a decrease round surely the lovely striping will return"
Here's the sleeve in question:
See that lovely C-shaped pool? Now that I see a photo of it in the light of day, ripping it out seems like the only answer. *sigh*
I did find a yarn store while we were at Cocoa Beach. The store also sold needlepoint and tatting supplies so the yarn selection was not what I am used to at my two LYSs. But I did find some Wildefoote to make socks for my daughter and Mission Falls cotton for baby hats.
Here is the first hat:
I used the Children's Cotton Hats pattern from "Last Minute Knitted Gifts" for the most part. I did omit the eyelet round and add some ribbing. The 2nd hat will use this blue in its stripes.
