Olympic Fail

So, I spent the better part of yesterday knitting the first third of a sleeve, ripping, calculating, and trying again.  There is just no way my Queensland Aran can be forced attractively into a Twigs and Leaves cardigan.  Not with my knitting ability anyway.  The yarn weight is just too heavy. 
As much as I love the pattern, I love the yarn more.  Using that yarn right now is my priority, so the pattern is being shelved.  I'm back to the proverbial drawing board.
