knittin' in class

i have gradually been working on Giselle in class and it's coming along nicely. The gauge has once again turned out to be larger than expected (i don’t know why i even knit swatches, for crying out loud), and i apparently missed some increases somewhere, because i had 6 sts too few or too many (i’m not sure which). i set aside the arm sts 15 repeats early and have a Small Body, Large back, and Medium sleeves when it comes to how many sts are on the needles; i really don’t care as long as the sweater fits! But i find it really odd that i’ve apparently messed up the increases so much and my gauge is so off.

In other news, i bought some Mary Janes to wear to work and show off the socks i hope to be knitting soon (i have a lot of sock yarn in my stash). i hope to post pics soon.
