Well.

It was bound to happen. Really. I've never made anything that doesn't fit me before. (Ok, I've made things that were too big, but at least they made it on to various appendages.) So I was cursed. Maybe it was the cast-off, maybe it was the fact that the turning of the heel was very very tight, maybe it was just the knitting gods getting their sacrifice. The first sock went ok, with a bit of a short-row mishap (*coughIshortrowedittwicecough*) but it fit. really. I liked it.

The second sock goes up to my heel, but the stupid thing won't make it past my heel. Grr. It's probably the cast-off; I don't know any sock-specific ones so I just used the one I know. Grr. It's really annoying. My first FO in like 2 months, and it gets botched up. Fate, I guess. Or the knitting gods.

Now the real problem: to frog or not to frog? I could probably get away with frogging to the heel and just making it a bit roomier, but what if that doesn't work out?

Oh, fish. Maybe I should just get back to doing my summer homework and forget about knitting? (hah, as if I'd ever really forget. Just...misplace the thought occasionally. Really.)

Hmm. deviantART is in a state of uproar. Just FYI.

Happy Yellow Day. (dA's 5th birthday; a time for celebrating community.)
