Lumpy Mitten :(

I feel accomplished but disappointed at the same time… It looks like I got progressively worse! You can tell by just looking at the red stitches inside the bird wings–the ones in the birds near the cuff are significantly smaller than the ones in the mitt. The difference from the third bird to the fourth is major too.

The backside is much neater than the front and has no lumpiness at all, even at the top, so I have no idea what happened. I tried readjusting the tension on some stitches but it just wants to go back to it’s lumpy state. My floats at the back are loose and there’s a lot of stretch…Bleh. At first I thought it was a tension issue overall, but I only have issues with the front.

Now for yarn dominance. The strand that’s under is likely to be more dominant, so I made the white one the strand that went under, but it looks like my red is more dominant? Do I have something backwards?

The tragicness is too overwhelming for me to handle. The second mitt’s going to have to wait!
