Comments on: My May Sweater Might Be Crap http://www.thesweatshopoflove.com/blog/2010/05/17/my-may-sweater-might-be-crap/ The Sweatshop of Love Blog celebrates every aspect of knitting - from finding a pattern to finishing a project. I publish my own patterns, share everything on my needles, and help knitters of all skill levels get excited about knitting. Never snobby, I use creativity and ingenuity to create finished projects for less. More than anything, The Sweatshop of Lover's Blog LOVES knitting and wants to make you love it, too.

I knew something was wrong. I would trust your gut feeling. from what i can see in your last pic and what seems to me is where your sleeves are starting... it looks like it's a belly top. BUT, i'm not holding it right... hmmm I say trust your spidey senses... Hope it all works out in the end! ps. gorgeous color! .-= telma´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.knittyornice.com/breaking-in-the-cottage/" rel="nofollow">Breaking In The Cottage</a> =-.

Hope it all works out in the end!

I'd ask for feedback from some other Ravlery folks who knitted it and see what they say- if no one else found the pattern weird, maybe you just need some space from it. I had a heck of a time with the Twinkle Tunic, but it was me- I was misunderstanding the directions, for oh, about a week. Felt like such an idiot when I finally figured it out. .-= Julie´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.knittedbliss.com/2010/05/modification-monday-selbu-clochette.html" rel="nofollow">Modification Monday: Selbu Clochette</a> =-.
