Grrrrrr

So I thought I was being sooooooo clever with my colorwork classic.  Well just before I went to bed Tuesday night I had a look at my work so far.  It didn't look like the picture.  The swirly bits were not lining up with the green/brown pattern the right way.  I was so smart about centring the main pattern but I didn't do the same thing with the swirl pattern.  Crap.

I could have just left it, because frankly, who would have noticed.  But I knew and I wanted to get it right.  The funny thing is, the swirl pattern is deliberately not centred on the body and it changes with each size (I'm not going to explain how, just trust me), but I wanted it to look like the picture, so I ripped it back and fixed it.

There's no picture today because it would be the same picture as Tuesday.  But now I've got all the issues worked out until I reach the armholes.
