Do you allow UFOs into your life??
Don't worry, this is not some extra-terrestrial, sci-fi loving post. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
No, I'm talking Unfinished Objects of the project kind.
This sweater is fast making me want to throw it into a UFO pile.
Recently I encountered this problem in the process of knitting the front/back of my sweater.
The mother of all holes smack bang centre front.
WTF???
And yes it took me several more inches of knitting to even discover this monstrosity.
Dropped stitch? Nup, all stitches accounted for.
The most frustrating annoying yarn known to man? Yep, that'd be it. See how you can see the stitch, it's just super fine? That's partly user error and partly the most annoyingly thick-and-thin yarn ever. This is already a lace-weight yarn (even though it often listed as DK, and it's recommended to use DK sized needles) and over the differently dyed lengths of yarn the thickness does vary. Particularly in that light grey yarn where the hole appeared. The grey lengths are particularly fine.
I truly do not know how I missed this, but miss it I did and a solution was needed.
Call in the lifeline!
