Here’s the little bit of I Do I did on Friday

I’ve read on a couple blogs that this pattern is easy. So now I feel stupid. I’m obviously missing something, because although I think I’m literally following the decrease instructions, I’m not getting the right number of decreases. It’s easy enough to fix. I can sneak in some extra decreases to catch up, but I’m thinking about ripping the whole thing anyway because I might want to make the sleeves a little less flared. My Kathmandu Shrug (see sidebar) has very wide, gorgeous sleeves that love to get caught on doorknobs and corners. It also takes a bit of effort to eat without dragging them through my plate.

Not that there’s much EATING happening around here right now!

I feel wretched. In some ways, today is worse than other days. It hurts so much.
