Sweater Take 2

I ripped up the sweater pretty far. It was hard to do. Here's what it looks like now:

But one advantage of moving is being forced to go through all your stuff, so I recently found my bamboo size 6 DPN's so I don't have to deal with these clunky metal ones:

Lighter and shorter.

After ripping I started with the sleeves first. I also decreased the stitches in the arm by 6. The shorter needles and the fewer stitches means this is going a lot faster now.

Even though I'm making the sweater smaller this time around, I'll probably still need more yarn. I made this Aidez sweater out of recycled yarn a while ago, but towards the end I ran out (story of my life, I know) so I used this sweater's brown yarn for the last bit. But since I need it now, I unraveled the brown bit from the Aidez sweater. I assembled it really poorly in the first place, so it's not like I could wear it around anyways. Eventually though, I'll finish and re-assemble the Aidez. Here's pictures of it before the ripping:

Notice the big holes...

So here's to getting it right! Hooray for ripping!
