“…your bad luck has saved you from.”
I started Navigate – Hurrah!
I fumbled my way through the first few rows of the cast on…and then I dropped a stitch and threw a massive tantrum.
Attempt number 1 = frogged.
I fumbled through the cast on successfully, and worked the first 30 odd rows of the pattern chart. I dropped and picked-back-up numerous stiches, had tight bits and loose bits, but I was making my way through.
Then I stopped to count my stiches. One too many. That might explain why the whole thing looks a little….off.
Debated whether or not to frog, thinking I probably should but that I didn’t know if I had it in me to try again.
Then I noticed that I had neglected to knit the TWO FULL INCHES of ribbing BEFORE starting the cable pattern. I skipped that line entirely and just didn’t notice.
Luckily this made the whole decision about whether to frog painfully simple, plus it was pretty funny that my heat-addled brain could make such a huge error and just not realise for so long!
Attempt number 2 = frogged.
Will I re-start Navigate again?
What this space, Phillyphiles.
