Roughly Six Hours of the Wrong Stitch!

Life is so good, making my own skirt on vacation to wear to dinner, and thinking how smart I am to have brought the knitting along, too, so I can get that last sleeve finished for that awesome sweater...and then THIS happens:


The one on the right would be the correct sleeve done in K1P1 for 21 inches. The one on the left would be what I started on my Asheville flight a couple of months ago and spent several hours during this vacation doing, which is stockinette stitch. I was wondering why this sleeve was so much bigger than the first one, and why the edge curled up...DOH!

Oh no! I hate doing things like that. I have though.

Yep, it stinks. Got it frogged and restarted, though...

To me the stitches look very similar, one is just larger than the other.

And believe me, Robbie, I would've tried to get away with it if it weren't so much larger and curling!
