Another one of my hobbies is knitting. I haven't done much in the way of knitting any kind of clothing or anything until now. Last Friday I decided to start the Elysium. It is a sideways knit cardigan stitched all in garter stitch. So...it is suppose to be somewhat easy! Somewhat I say! I did have to learn how to wrap and turn to do short rows.
(the beginning June 14)
(where I was at on June 16).
This is where I am at now. I have the entire left front done, the left sleeve and I started on the back rows. Then...I look at my work and what do I find....
Yep...a dropped stitch! URG! So frustrating. So I haven't worked on it since Thursday. why because I have no idea how to fix it. I am about ready just to tear it all out and start again. But I really don't want to do that. I am hoping someone at my knitting group can help me. Every Wednesday I join some ladies at a local coffee shop for a bit of knitting. Like I said HOPEFULLY they can help. I watched videos on YouTube but they just didn't help me. And I since I have only ever made scarves and dish clothes I really have not had enough practice to undo my work and go back and fix my mistake. So fingers crossed come Wednesday night it I will find out if it is fixable and hopefully will be working on it again. I just really don't want to work on it anymore until I know. No point in knitting and knitting just to tear it out. But hopefully soon I will be wearing my first cardigan. Yeah!
