You Do Such Good Work

Of course I love the compliment when someone says I do good work. They are, however, under the mistaken impression that everything I do turns into something good and wonderful. Of course, there have been my 'off'' days, but basically I tend to agree that I do such good work. But only when I'm done. Getting there is a whole other story.

There was the day I mistakenly believed that my swift could double as a skein winder:


Trust me, there is a difference between a skein winder and a swift.

Then there was the fair isle disaster:


Of course the sweater is still on the needles, but I did manage to use up some of these quaint little balls of wonder.

And let's not forget the Must Have Cardigan with the not so matching sleeves:

After all that time and energy, I ripped the sleeves out completely and started over. Not to mention the 50 rows of 'undone' sweater, I had to rip out a front panel because of a goofed up cable.

Yes, I do good work. Right after I get finished screwing up.
