byzantium sweater (pt 2)

Went through and fixed all the twisted knit columns and I hate them, just a little. Moved two of them near on either side  stitch closer to the center, while binding off for the arm holes so that they wouldn't be lost to the seam. Found another knot in the 2nd ball of yarn, putting me at 3 knots/2 skeins so far. Changed to the third ball of yarn at row 131 (54 + 56 + 21).

Pretty sure I started binding off for collar at row 156 (21 + 8 + 48 * 2 + 39 - 8) and finished binding off in really bad pain.

Only after I finished knitting the back did I realize that I messed up a bunch of the cable crosses at the beginning and had to go back to fix those. One was so early on that I put in some lifelines and cut into the knitting to unpick two stitches and then crochet them back up and kitchener stitch them back together.

I've worked most of the way through the front of the sweater now and it's at least neater. I've been doing ptbls instead of waiting until the end to do all the back loop knit columns.

Had a short interlude where I tried to figure out if I wanted to alter the 3 needle bind off that's coming up, but other than knitting one more row on the back so that it's even, probably not. I'll get to block it soon and am going to have to text someone about their blocking mats for that. Looking forward to fixing a ton of stretched out stitches.
