Frustration.

I've nearly finished a sweater vest, only to discover my gauge is off by just enough to make it too small for the wearer's tastes. It's about 2 inches smaller around than intended; while this could be remedied by substantial blocking, the wearer would have to repeat the process every time she washed it, and nobody wants to have to do that.

Tearing it out now, and starting over tomorrow. I'll add 1 stitch to my 4"x4" gauge and that will remedy the problem. Very frustrating. I'll soothe myself with a pleasant diversion for the rest of the day - perhaps that 1940's purse pattern I'm making for my sister-in-law for Christmas. I have so been itching to start on it.
