Amphibious knitting

1-19-10 006It’s called frogging because you rip-it, rip-it, rip-it. Yep, the baby gansey was a no-go. The circumference was too small for my little sausage biscuit, and the armholes were too shallow for easy dressing. So I’m ripping and re-knitting.

I may be a bit of a perfectionist, which drives Tim crazy. He can’t stand to see me unraveling knitting, so I have to do it when he’s not around. My secret vice: frogging.

As I reknit this, I’m taking the opportunity to incorporate some improvements, including knit-as-you-go button bands. I’m hoping this will be a great pattern. Gideon, after all, has stringent sartorial requirements. Right.
