That’s almost what I said when I realised that I’d added in some extra stitches to the panel of my Flax Light. About 10 rounds ago.
I know the sensible advice I would probably give someone else – Nobody will notice when you’re wearing it. That just makes it more unique. And so on.
But I’m not taking my advice right now. I think I used up all my ‘ignore the mistakes’ energy on the missed purl rows, and I just can’t leave this one be.
So please pardon my French while I sit here tinking rows and rows of work because of one silly mistake.
Oh well, at least I noticed now and not when it was all done and blocked!

Isn’t it annoying!
Good thing the weather is nice right now so there’s not a desperate need for a jumper :p

I hear ya! Without the arrow I probably wouldn’t have noticed it, but you’re right, when you know it’s there it’s hard to ignore 🙁 I’ve frogged so much… I feel your pain!

I just know it would always be the first thing I looked at every time I wore it, so I must fix!

I know the pain… I hope at least the yarn isn’t too hard to unravel! Sometimes I had to throw away pieces of finished work because it was impossible to unravel the yarn 😦

It is a wee bit sticky, but tinking rather than just pulling the whole thing out seems to be keeping it under control.

I have a VERY hard time letting mistakes go…because even though everyone says that no one will notice, I WILL NOTICE :ppppp

Oh yes we’ve all been there – glaring mistake that might not be noticeable by anyone else but screams out to us all the time! At least it’s only a few rows of tinking… Hope you knit back to where you currently are soon enough.
