Progress -vs- Anti-Progress

While working on the blue cardigan, I kept getting the feeling that it was just too darn small. I told myself that this was just because my own size would be so much larger. Ah, the lies we knitters tell ourselves. On Sunday I found someone at church who was about the same size as Joanna's teacher and held it up to her. It would fit if one wanted a form fitting cardigan. Not what I had in mind. So here is the first try abandoned in place.



I started a wider version and have now made it just past the pocket.



I like this version a lot better. I need to figure how long it should be to the armpit. Off to the pattern files.
