In fact, when math and swatches are used together, I suspect their evil powers are multiplied ten-fold!<BR/><BR/>I had the same thing happen with splitting up the Tofutsies into two balls a few months ago--weighed,carefully wound, weighed some more and then....one ball the size of a grapefruit and the other the size of large egg!<BR/><BR/>Well, at least I know now it wasn't ALL operator error on my part, as I know your knitting hit powers are way more advanced than mine! :) I think not swatching and sticking to loose, approximate numbers is the best policy! ha!knottykittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14543761535290092101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443300355315157565.post-37268892987610128002007-11-30T08:44:00.000-08:002007-11-30T08:44:00.000-08:00No!
