Have you ever had a project make you insane? Bet the answer is yes.
I have some really nice 5/2 cotton (color is "currant") which I am using to make a warm weather tuck stitch vest. Everything that could go wrong has. Dropped EO stitch when knitting, broken yarn (right under a needle), forgetting to knit the last row of each shoulder piece in stockinette (you ever rehang tuck stitches then pull them through other tuck stitches to then knit a row?), needles not selecting when I turned the machine back on, not enough weight on the ends, loop on the end, yarn caught on a gate peg, did chain cast off after joining a shoulder to only find I missed one of the tucks....you get the idea. I must admit, these were all my fault (except the broken yarn).
Maybe it's "spring fever?"
Below is a 20 second video clip (I sent to a friend) of decreasing as I was doing one of the armholes in tuck stitch.

It must be spring fever, I'm having problems with everything I knit... ;-)
