So here is a perfect example of why one should finish what one starts in a timely manner. I started working on Dolman Updated oh... early 2004 sometime. I just finished the last of four nearly identical pieces yesterday. Such excitement filled my soul as I laid 'front right' to 'back right' in preparation for seaming. But then, what's this? Why is 'right front' so tiny, and in such a tight gauge? Why is 'back right' so relaxed, and several inches longer? I pulled out my trusty KnitChek (pictured at left) and verified that the first sweater section was knitted several stiches off gauge. Gargh! I yodeled my frustration to the capricious knitting gods. So take a look: The good news is that the remaining 3 pieces are knit to the same gauge. I guess I must have been stressed last winter, or something. This was also the first big project I attempted after switching to continental style, and I have discovered that I can knit a little tightly if I don't watch it. The other good news is that the pieces go pretty quickly, so I should be able to re-whip up another 'right front' piece in no time at all. Oh, and if anyone else is attempting this pattern, be sure to check out the errata on the Interweave Knits website.
