A decision is made
is going to be ripped quite a bit and become a sweater.
is going to become the capelet.
Can you believe I am actually going to use US8/5mm needles? That's huge for me. I really hesitated about this color. I usually hate yellow, but there was something I liked about this one. I tried to buy #508 but they only had 2 balls. Then I was trying to decide between #213 and the yellow. I probably should have bought the blue, but I figured if I really hate it, I'll give it to my yellow-loving sister... assuming she likes the capelet. Even though our early fall like weather is making me crave a nice sweatery thing to walk around in, I probably won't get to work on this for a while, like after October 1st. I'll have to check my knitting calendar and then my people will call the cashmerino's people to work out the details of our contract and the start date. I demand that it knit up quickly, not split and most importantly, that this will be the last (and 3rd) time that I knit this damned capelet. The cashmerino requires that I knit a huge swatch instead of unkindly ripping it 6 times. It also requests that I refer to it as "butter" and to stop badmouthing yellow. I'll have to call my lawyers to see if that's possible.
