Ughh
I think this is the first time I've ever ripped (AKA frogged) so much knitting. I'm working on my Elizabeth Zimmerman adult surprise jacket. Not wanting to be boring I added stripes: the sleeves and the stripe to widen the sleeve. Ugh. So I'm taking them out and replacing with just blue, the body color. After all the idea is to make a sweater I'll wear not to finish a sweater!

Wurm hat
Finished my wurm hat today. A series of knit and purl rows and a great double layer brim. The pattern is a free Ravelry download. I used Zino Yarn made by Plymouth. It's a fingering weight yarn so I used a size 4 needle for the entire hat. I also did a provisional cast on to make it easier when I picked up the stitches for the double thick band. I made a large size (110 cast on). I think it's a little big and if I make it again I might try a smaller size.
