This joker is huge

I had it all figured out. Aurora 4..check! Needles, size 5...check! Pattern idea & drawing...check! So what did I get.....




Look at that thing. It may look good but in actuality, it's HUGE! I'm talking X-Large instead of the intended medium. My mistake was not going with the suggested size US 3/4.It stretched out alot while blocking it. So I guess it's back to the drawing board. AAARRRGGGHHH!
