My lovely Jemima Puddleduck sweater has regressed, uhm, a little. I had completed the front (with the picture of Jemima), one sleeve and was 3/4 of the way up the back when I realized that my gauge for the back & sleeve (7 rows/inch) was different than for the front (6 rows/inch). For all three, the stitches per inch were pretty bang-on. So, I pondered for a few hours what to do. It occurred to me that if I pressed on, I could run into problems when I went to make up the garment - particularly seaming the front and back. Then I got to looking at the front and the imperfections that had irritated me only slightly before, now began to jump out at me.

The solution? Frog the front to the ribbing and try it again. I'm a few rows back up and like it so far. I've also used some slightly different techniques (which I found in a back issue of Interweave Knits). I'm also being super careful of my gauge and checking every colour change a few times before going on to the next row.

And, if I could get my camera to work (or for that matter, find it), I would provide some evidence.
