I love to frog


Remember this cardigan?  Well, the last time I saw my version of the Puerperium Cardigan I was halfway down the body.  I  ended up frogging it as I did not like my button bands.

So, I started the Coffee Bean Cardigan, using Liberty Wool.  Much happier this time, except



I did not understand the directions and I knit 3.5 inches further and made more increases than I should.  The needle is marking the spot where I should have stopped to put the sleeve stitches on scrap yarn.  Now I get to pull this out. 

And I wanted to have this done by Sunday for the baby shower for my first grandchild, a boy.
