Instead of working on anything I have going like the shawl I really should finish or fixing the mixed up row on the DFS I swatched for yet another project.
Swatch using Sirdar Eternity met the required specifics of 17 sts and 24 rows to 10cm.
Start knitting get past the ribbing........... progress to the stocking stitch.
Think it is all looking a bit small.
Measure guage and go blah.
Somehow it changed and I am now getting 23 stitches for 10 cm. No wonder it's looking small.How does this happen??? That's an extra six stitches. Blah.
Looks like time for a needle change.
Somehow I am guessing I will be needing one of the sizes I don't have in a circular.
Back to the projects I DO have the right size needles for.
