Oh, they rock.

In other news, Kevin missed his flight back, so he'll get in late tonight instead of 3 hours ago. :-( Bummer.
In an apparent attempt to cheer me up, however, the Hallmark channel is playing the Parent Trap, followed by Pollyanna. I have never seen the full Parent Trap. My mother thought the mother was simpering, the father was browbeaten, and Susan & Sharon were irritating, so I don't think I ever saw the whole thing. (sidenote: My younger sister's name is Sharon, and we both used to be blond as could be and have the bowl cut. endless comparisons.) Pollyanna is one of my long-time favourites, so it was fun to see that again.
I've been Roguing away, working on the pocket. I keep having to frog it, after not matching up my decreases. Roar. Third time had better be the charm.
Also, has anyone else had trouble with the hem facing? It's a twisted stockinette stitch, and my understanding was that it shouldn't curl. However, mine's rolled up about as tightly as could be. Any ideas how to mitigate this? I really like the way it looks flat, it just won't stay that way:

It turns out that you're supposed to sew the hem under so that it makes a little tube. ohhhh. Note to self: read the pattern before panicking. Thanks to Jessica for pointing this out. :-)
