yes, yes, it's been 2 weeks since my last post.
i'm so bad.
and i'm a slow knitter.
i finally finished my Slutty Tank (aka Steek Tank from loop-d-loop) and guess what??? it's too SHORT!!! yea, apparently I didn't gauge swatch very well, and LB Incredible is a horrible horrible yarn.
YES, I'm blaming it on the yarn!
Right now I'm working on Lelah in a peachy cotton/acrylic thrifted yarn. I'm not so sure the yarn is good w/ the pattern, and I don't even know if it will fit very well. LOL. This is my 3rd attempt because I kept messing up the first 2 times, and because I decided to go down a few needle sizes. The yarn looks shiney and icky in the photo but it's really very soft. I think I'll add a large green ribbon for the bow, or I might even gradually switch to a brown color, as I don't think I look so great in peach. We'll have to see.....

I admit I'm a perfectionist...and the uneven knit stitches on each end of the lace pattern REALLY BUGS ME.
I've been checking out everyone else's Lelah, and they look so neat and straight.
----What am I doing wrong here!?!? HELP!!!
oO also I'm super excited about the Stitch Markers Swap that just started!
