Knitting Fail: Revolution Watch Cap
My latest project was a beanie for Adam, which was a failure for a couple of different reasons. The pattern was the Revolution Watch Cap by Cecelia Campochiaro, available on Ravelry, and I believe it contained a few errors. Some of them I caught and corrected, but some I didn’t, which is evident because some of the diagonal stripes that should have gone back and forth on the sides just turned into chaos. Secondly, the yarn Adam picked out from Imagiknit, Patagonia Organic Merino by Juniper Moon Farm in Rust, was pretty poor quality. The single skein was made of MULTIPLE pieces, joined by knots, which is something I’d never seen before (occasionally you get ONE knot, but not 5-6). The yarn was also quite weak, and broke if I pulled it too hard. On the upside, it was fun to knit and Adam thinks it feels warm and cozy, which is what matters!
