not a good sign

i find myself on the lookout for patterns to use my reclaimed berocco softy, just in case i end up ripping out the whole shawl wrap cardigan project. that is a last resort of course. i am still going ahead with at least one sleeve, to see how it all comes together. also, i'll rip the bottom and fiddle with that to see what i can't come up with... before i rip out the whole thing.

replacement project contenders. ripped off from bonne marie: another shawl collar dealie, i think the cuddliness of the yarn is suited to a shawl or otherwise doubled collar. or, this is definitely a departure for me, cat bordhi's rimrock cape (pg. 5 and 22).
