A Disappointing Week, Knitting-wise

I spent an evening with my old Aran sweater and had no luck splitting it into two pieces. So I decided that I'd frog it, wash the yarn and put it away for a future project. Old acrylic doesn't frog well. I got halfway through one sleeve and realized it wasn't worth it so I threw it in the trash. It felt really odd just throwing it out but there was nothing else to be done with it.

Next on the agenda was finishing Point Arena. I spent a relatively pleasant afternoon sewing it together and then started on the neckband. I had planned on making it a turtleneck but I ran out of yarn. I was sure I had another skein but couldn't find it. So I frogged and reworked it as a mock turtleneck. I finished it, tried it on and hated it. The neck opening was much too wide. I considered taking it apart and making the neck opening smaller and then making it a crewneck but I've spent so much time lately taking finished projects apart and reworking them that I just couldn't do it. So now it's got sort of a ballet neck. It's... strange. It's too  bulky to be so fitted and have a ballet neck. So I think I'll call it done for now, put it away and work on something else.

Ugh.
