Fixing Pro

So it turns out I am becoming a bit of a pro at fixing mistakes in cables when I am knitting. Not the kind of pro that can actually figure out how to gran that dropped stitch and weave it back up through the complicated maneuvers, but the kind that can drop back a whole section just to grab that dropped stitch.

That’s right, I have to keep relearning my lesson about working on the afghan when at all tired. Everything seems to be cruising along fine when all of a sudden I get to a point and say, why am I 1 stitch short or why is there a stitch dangling there?

It’s a bit frustrating overall since I would rather be making continuous forward progress than this everything forward, drop the middle back, bring the middle back to where everything else is, go forward with everything a little bit more, drop back the middle… etc.

At least in this heat it gives me an excuse to go out to my favorite coffee shops to drink cold beverages and sit in the ac.
