haircut

It was my turn. Yep, I had my haircut yesterday and then ran a bunch (as in a lot, quite a few) errands.

I had 7 places to stop by on my list. It was a long day (we went out for dinner).

On a knitting note... how many times do you swatch before you decide the yarn just isn't quite right for the project?!  Four??

I think I'll give it a try with the size US7 needles (the pattern calls for US9). The pattern calls for an alpaca or alpaca blend, chunky weight. Well to get gauge I'm using 100% baby alpaca worsted weight.  If it works out, I'll tell you what it is otherwise I'll be trying something else.
