Cardigan infidelity

I don't know. You're busy knitting one purple cardigan...

...and desperately trying to stay awake whilst knitting stitch after boring stitch of dull, purple monotony...when out of the blue, there arrives this, from Knitty.

A much nicer, more exciting purple cardigan! Look! it has Other Stitches in it, like garter stitch and - oh my! - twisted rib. So there was only one thing to do.

Ahem. I cast it on, and cast the other one into the big fiery pit of unfinished objects. I can't help it if a prettier cardigan comes along and turns my head! It's Knitty's fault, anyway!!
