thank you so much for all you gusset input! I cast on again last night and have made great progress — despite the murky translation, this is a really great pattern. Kathleen came to lunch yesterday along with Sue, Granny and Peggy and Sue showed me the way of the gusset. Of course, me being me, I still had to mess around with it, but so far so good. If it actually works out, I will let you know what I did.

The excitement yesterday was D#2 was rear-ended at a stop light.  As a matter of fact she was the fourth of a five car rear ending.  Thankfully no one was hurt.  The Subaru however needs some repairs so Chez Swine is in the midst of a car shuffle.  It is always something.  How about we all channel a little Roseanne Roseannadanna     “If it isn’t one thing it’s another”    ~sigh~
