Just this week I had unwisely said to a friend that at last I could knit again because Nell now ignores it. Well yes, when I am in progress, but clearly not when I leave the bag of temptation on the floor. My fault... and Someone Else's for falling asleep on watch when I was out of the room.
There was a bit of a meltdown, I was everso nice and understanding about it.
And it could have been worse, imagine a lovely set of Lantern Moon needles...
However I was on my beam ends with the wool as it was (thank you for it Cheryl, your guilt and donation of the stash is finally assuaged) and the downside is that the clever little critter had chomped up the edges too, so a lot of unravelling of short bits of wool later and it is clear that though I should have enough to finish this final sleeve of the cardigan (Noro Designer Mini Knits Pattern 1 with a bit of length added) there will probably not be enough for the button bands and the neck. A scouring of the internet reveals not an ounce of Noro Kochoran Shade 55 to be had in the UK, so I am now looking at equivalents that might do the trick as a plain contrast. The wool needs to knit to approximately 12sts x 15rows on 6mm needles, and the nearest I can find is Rowan Cocoon, which does 14 x 16 on 7mm, in shade 813 that might just work, what do you think ...all suggestions welcome.
And of course it may all have been revenge...
for this...
