Frogger

Thanks for your comments. The verdict is: Granny won hands down! And so... I bit the bullet and unravelled all 3.5 skeins of Lizard Ridge.

Luckily I don't feel too sad because the big Granny is progressing quite well! (It's still growing)

Unfortunately, Lizard Ridge is not the only recent frogging incident.

As I was knitting Ivy League, I always thought it looked a bit tight and small from the very beginning. Previously, during the ribbing stage, I had tried it on and it fit nicely. I thought things would work out and continued knitting to the v-neck opening before trying it on again. It still fit onto my body... but very snug. I could hardly move or breathe. I think I'll have to frog this back to the ribbing, then switch to a larger sized needle. BOOHOO!!!

There are also a few other projects that have been hibernating or failed miserably. I am going to give up on them too and start fresh!! Here are the pre-frog pics.

1) Jeanie

It was love at first sight, so much that I went and bought the suggested yarn. But the infactuation quickly fizzled. Numerous stichmarkers and figuring out a bunch of charts... I only got to the 3rd row, I don’t like this anymore.-> Plan to make Thermal.

2) Maldi's Shawl

Love the pattern, but the yarn choice was a bad one. I haven't fully frogged this but took the needle out.

-> Plan to make a sweater instead.

3) Twinkle Groovy Sweater

Fun, fast but terrible fit. Looks hideous on me.

-> Plan to make Kangaroo Tunic or a cardigan.

4) Chunky Print Yoke Vest
Also looks hideous on me.

-> Plan to make the same deep-v vest I made for my sister, but for myself.

5) Cannes

Too big.
-> Plan to reknit the same pattern using a smaller size.

It's like Spring cleaning!!
