March 15, 2004Too Wide, MaybeI laid out my loosest fitting pants and it appears that I underestimated the width of my no sweat pants. I opted not to include the decreases that Alison incorporated, because I thought it wasn't looking loose enough for my size. Boy, was I wrong. Looks like a redo. Oh well. I must say even though I didn't officially join Alison's rip-a-long, it did inspire me to rip many projects and it was quite empowering. I now believe I am stronger than a knit stitch. The stitch can't take me out, but I definitely can take it out if I want to. So here we go from this:  to this:  I also took a little off the pant legs. They were lookin' a little long.

Good thing you don't mind froggin'. At this point I would be crying and my project would never again see the light if day!!! Good Luck!
