Yeah; I'm there. So there. I. Hate. This. Sweater.

Maybe I hate it because it should be so lovable. It's so close to being nice! It's soft and cozy and really makes a wonderful fabric, the pattern I've adapted is coming out super; but still I just feel like the color is a total bloomer. I tried hard to take a plunge and work off my comfort-palette and I feel like Amy Rose has slapped me across the face.
Sigh.
I'm going to finish her, though (ripping out mohair is a fate worse than, well, lots of things are actually far worse, but I just don't want to do it, plus since I like the sweater itself, there's no point in my recycling the yarn). Heck, I've made it to the sleeves, that should take only a couple days to finish.
Then I'm going to do something COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

Awwwwww. I'm so sorry it didn't work out better for you. I think it looks fine, maybe a little loud but not too bad, but pink tends to be a love-it-or-hate-it proposition.
ReplyDeleteI love this sweater. The colors are beautiful. I think you did a great job. Sorry you don't like it.
ReplyDeleteOh thanks for all the encouragement, guys.
ReplyDeleteI think someone would love the color, but it's not me (I waffle on how much I don't love it daily) and maybe I'm just getting sick of looking at it. I'm from New England, and we're just not that into pink . . .
But seriously, I'm going to get some pictures of it on when it's done and make another one in colors I like for myself. It's a very nice little sweater, and I think it will look really nice on.
