Grr. Argh.

So, I got the yarn in the right gauge for Tempting, and then we changed our minds and decided to go for Tempting II, which has a different gauge. I refused to swatch, but after about 12 rows, as my first ball of yarn had nearly disappeared, I realized I needed to finally bow to the swatch. So I did! I went down 2 needle sizes because all I had was a circular 8 (which is what the pattern called for, but was too big) and a circular 6. So I swatched on 6's, and now the gauge is too small. I don't want to buy 7s right now, and so I am toying with just using the 8's and trying to do the math to figure out which smaller size to knit. Augh. Math.
