There Aren’t Many “Hard Nos” in Knitting…

But one of them is definitely “Matched items should be the same length, not a full inch shorter than the other.”

Bonus shot, with kitty feet.

I don’t know how it happened, either. Luckily I noticed before I went to all the trouble of weaving in the ends, but only barely. Back to the drawing board on that one!

Glad the old man’s still got the gumption to get in the way.

I was halfway through a second Selbuvotter glove when I realized I’d left out one of the patterns on the cuff. Frogging it would have made me cry, so I just cast on another glove and pretended the second one never happened. (Someday I’ll finish the bad glove and knit another one to make a pair. Someday.)

Really? Oh, dear. I’d better see if I can find the leftover yarn and get started on some glove- and sock cuffs …

Nah: too much work.

I’ll just keep telling people they’re “fraternal,” not identical. Mom LOVED that joke.
