When she is home it seems she is much more tense and the squares come out a lot tighter. Luckily you checked your gauge before you started knitting the whole garment. I also noticed your previous post too. I suffer from depression and yes it is true that no-one will ever truly understand until they go through it themselves. Wouldnt it be nice if you didnt have to suffer from it at all, I know I would be happy about that.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02893692345113831018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6590689044094137272.post-37022253748535834952012-11-27T08:02:47.443+11:002012-11-27T08:02:47.443+11:00Checking the gauge is such a fiddly thing to do bu...Checking the gauge is such a fiddly thing to do but with so many different yarns out now it pays to check. I rarely use the exact yarn the pattern calls for. Lucky you checked.
