So there I was, making great progress on my gray tank – when I realized I had messed up the waist shaping completely.
One evening, Thursday I believe, I sat down without a care in the world to watch Midsomer Murders (I’m on a bit of a binge with that show – up to season 18!) and just knit away in stockinette up until bedtime.
Except that I should have been doing my waist shaping in exactly that stretch of knitting. Sigh.
So this evening, when I sat down to watch Midsomer Murders, I slid a circular needle in at the row where I should have started shaping, and ripped back down. Fortunately the placeholder circular worked out great and I was able to begin again without any hassles. This time, working the shaping like I was supposed to! And the yarn did not seem to suffer from being ripped, which I was a little concerned about. So, other than a few wasted hours, no harm done, and I am almost where I was when I figured out my mistake.

I have gotten engrossed in tv and messed up by knitting more times than I care to admit:( I’m glad you’re back on track. The color is lovely:)

Yep – caught up in programming 🙂 And ordinarily I would just let it go. But I bothered to generate a fitted pattern, so I felt like it would be a little goofy of me not to fix it so it actually fits! I am pretty happy with the yarn color as well 🙂

That has happened to me too. I love how the yarn is knitting up. I hope it goes better this time.

1 step forward 2 steps back? At least you’re back on track. My fav duo is Tom and Ben, which pair did you like?
