Technology and Those Vest Sleeves

I didn’t blog last week, sorry. I consider myself reasonably competent with the use of technology but, and here is where the competence is lacking, I don’t understand how website security works. I have one type of website security with my host and another, which I thought was a good thing, with an addon through my host. Nuhuh, not good at all.

I called the addon guys as I was told last time my website went down for lack of a security application, that the addon was the problem; it didn’t play well with my host’s security software. Man, you would have thought that I had insulted their family and everyone they knew! I was steered back to my web host with a snippy not our fault and they don’t know what they are talking about.

On to the web host then to get this solved because it was their fault, right? Nuhuh again. The kind lady on their chat line explained exactly what was wrong and why it was the fault of the addon. She promised to fix it right away and to disable the addon so that it doesn’t happen again. I tell ya’, sometimes I feel like I just need to send everyone to their room’s for a time out when I am dealing with technology.

      

Right side of the work is the first photo, the wrong side is the second.  Hard to choose, no?

Thanks for listening! I didn’t get very far with my sleeves for the pretty vest but, like a lot of us, I did start a few new projects. I keep getting sucked back into the machine knitting vortex! Anyway, I did work out a pattern for the sleeves and got started. I can’t decide which side I like the best as both are different looking and quite unique.

             

Here is what I have so far. I am going to push through and try to get both of the sleeves done for next (heard that before?) week and have them sewn in as well. If I don’t finish then I will show off my latest machine knit projects!

Happy crafting this week may all of your projects turn out just as you imagined they would. (That almost never happens for me so wish it back will you?)

  1. It’s really hard to decide if I like the right side or wrong side better. The right side is a little smoother looking (making my OCD happy), but I like the tighter look of the wrong side. It looks cozier and like it might more fitted. Either way, it looks like you’re making good progress! I can’t wait to see how it turns out!

    1. I actually like the wrong side better myself. It is just a little big more “jacket” looking in my opinion. Plus, it is different looking, which is always a bonus in my mind. I like the unique but not too wild in fashion.
