Ok. So remember how I started a new test-knit?
Well, I did. And I'm loving the pattern.
However, I think it's cursed.
This is my 4th attempt at a cast on.
The first, I accidentally twisted my cast-on when joining in the round.
The second, I screwed up the cuff pattern badly enough that I just decided it was easier to unravel.
The third, I had a double-pointed needle come loose of my knitting while it was in my bag, the yarn caught on my notebook, and I had an unraveled mess.
So, attempt number four is going well. No pictures yet (nothing really of substance since I haven't finished the cuff yet), and I'm holding my breath hoping I don't have to cast on -again-!
However, despite my trouble with the cast-on, the pattern's looking pretty awesome. It's the first time I'm doing a sock with arch shaping, so it also looks a touch intimidating. But the designer's been awesome about answering questions, so I'm not too worried if I get stuck.
