I have a magazine commission. I swatched, blocked the swatch, did math, knit. I tried on the item, I was getting the same gauge as the unblocked swatch, it was small but I knew from blocking that the swatch would grow. It grew. It grew significantly more than the stupid swatch did. Instead of fitting a four year old the hat fits me. I have a photoshoot in two days and need it in the mail in four days. It's superwash so I can't felt it, I don't have more yarn and unpicking the woven in ends is maddening and I'm not convinced I have time to reknit the thing. My son is sleeping so I'll try it on him when he wakes up but.... gah. So utterly frustrating.
