I am absolutely sick to death

of knitting mistakes that require that I rip out approximately 1 month’s work!  I was showing off the sweater I’m working on when I noticed a SERIOUS error near the beginning of the front piece.  I’m so mad right now that I don’t want to knit anything. Not even baby hats.I’ve been reading Yarn Harlot’s Free Range Knitter in which she addresses this same thing, seemingly written about me and my specific project (her mistake was at the beginning of a sweater – whoop, I have something in common with Yarn Harlot).  She says “happily reknitting is oxymoronic as “smart bomb,” “alone together,” or the classic “government organization.”"  I couldn’t agree more.  I love knitting but I am not in love with the prospect of reknitting the entire front piece.  I am not a happy knitter.
