I’m just going to sit and play computer games tonight because I don’t think it’s safe for me to attempt any more making.
First, I came to put aside sleeve stitches on the Good Old Raglan and realised I’d done the increases COMPLETELY wrong. There were 4 increase lines equally spaced around it, rather than the correct spacing for sleeves and body. I tried tinking back but then couldn’t work out where the stitch markers should go (thanks to some short rows at the neck) and ended up frogging the lot to start again.

Then it was time to start the prep for sourdough pizza so we can have it tomorrow. I measured everything out and thought it was a lot, but told myself it just seemed like a lot because I’d halved the recipe last time.
Turns out I hadn’t noticed there was a wee tip of a butter knife under one corner of the scales so all the measurements were completely off. You’d think I would have twigged when it used up nearly a whole bag of flour, but noooo.
My dearest hope is that all the measurements were off the same amount so it’s just a lot of useable dough, rather than a waste of starter and so much flour. There’s only one way to find out.
So I give up on today. Hopefully I’ll get my mojo back tomorrow.

It did turn out to be lots of pizza, thankfully.It’s also freezable so we didn’t have to eat pizza 5 days in a row!

It was really tasty, thankfully. Next time I’ll make triple-sure the scales are working properly.
