I think we all get to that point all the time. I know I do..LOL You've got a lovely yard, just takes time to grow it up.Laura.Yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11812481251142672384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11171814.post-1116426723684625022005-05-18T07:32:00.000-07:002005-05-18T07:32:00.000-07:00Some days my job is really stressful as well, I ju...Some days my job is really stressful as well, I just can't change it :-) YOu seem like a very smart woman and I am sure that when the perfect opportunity comes along, you will know it.<BR/><BR/>Sorry to say I can't help with the sweater. I haven't made one yet and am still a bit intimidated.Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13766077635220534281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11171814.post-1116424583221964082005-05-18T06:56:00.000-07:002005-05-18T06:56:00.000-07:00Hmmm my take would be you sew the neckband to the ...Hmmm my take would be you sew the neckband to the actual neck of the sweater, then sew the ending edge of the neckband together. I'm envisioning the neckband as something similar to what you would do if you picked up stitches and knit the neck. <BR/><BR/>Those directions are a bit confusing though. I've knitted only one patterns of Ms. Leapman's and at several places I had to read and re-read to understand. I had to actually get a magnifying glass out to study the picture of the sweater better to understand. BUt she has the cutest patterns!<BR/><BR/>I hate work related stress, I work for an attorney so I definitely understand stress at the job. It's no fun, I often think of quitting and working for a larger firm, so far I haven't gotten up the nerve to do it. One day though, as you say when the opportunity presents itself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11171814.post-1116393555628193052005-05-17T22:19:00.000-07:002005-05-17T22:19:00.000-07:00I don't understand the instructions either.

Maybe you should really write to the designer for clarification ... why not?Agneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09729336648909814348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11171814.post-1116390011458332182005-05-17T21:20:00.000-07:002005-05-17T21:20:00.000-07:00Lynette, it does sound like you should have a sche...Lynette, it does sound like you should have a schematic to refer to for the "neckbands"... reminds me of the kind of band running down the fronts of a cardigan. I can empathise about the job; mine was cut in half for next school year, and even though I learned that in Jan. I haven't fully put together what I am going to do about it, even got a call for a new possibility this evening. Have to keep asking, "Is this the new door I am supposed to be going through?" and try not to feel like Alice in Wonderland.Birdsonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06341638516293843227noreply@blogger.com
