Oops and un-oops
You know how sometimes you get a little confused about what row of a cable pattern you’re on? Even despite your best efforts of row-counting?
Yeah. I definitely know that feeling.
Luckily, my adventures with my Aran sweater a few years ago taught me the kninja technique of isolated ripping back, where you just drop the stitches in a narrow section of your work and re-do it. A scan five minutes of knitting time later, and voila:
Like it never happened.
(Except, of course, that I just posted pictures on the Internet documenting that it did happen.)

You are going to have to share your kninja ripping back technique. If I knew that, even ‘I’ would try cabling! Nicely done. And thanks for the accountability

Or you can view your hard-won skill as stifling your innate design sense.
Aren’t I helpful?

Your secret is safe with me.

Nice! And I like the word “kninja” – I’ll have to remember that one!

You are so bad. I mean that in the non-perverted Michael Jackson way.

Oh but I kinda liked the twisty doodle it did near the end there!
