Teddy Bear Sweater Progress

Ok, I am almost finished with my Teddy bear sweater. A few more rows of the body and then onto the little sleeves. There was one row with a hard to memorize pattern that kept on getting the better of me. I frogged it twice. I don' think it's ever taken me so long to do one measly row. I suppose my excuse was that I kept on getting distracted.

The interesting thing about using handspun is that the designs aren't perfectly symmetrical because, after all, my spinning is not perfect. So one might argue that using handspun yarn is not the best choice of yarn for patterns with designs. What do you think?
