Thanks, Canute. I am a bit of a perfectionest so I did frog a lot before finally binding off on the whole thing. When it comes to crafts, drawing,etc. I become completely obsessed with getting it just right.

And buying more yarn sounds like perfect revenge! I am heading to my LYS today,in fact.

I need to have a little of that perfectionism. I just can't be bothered most of the time. I wish I could.

Well, no yarn but I did get some 2 dpns for the sock yarn I bought yesterday and some stitch markers. I looked for buttons but didn't see any I liked for my sweater.
