Pattern Reading Blunder translates to "Rip it, Rip it"


The first lesson in knitting school: "Read the entire pattern carefully before you begin."

Sure. Laugh it up. It makes two of us. I made a silly (fundamental?) mistake, and this time around, I cannot even blame it on the pattern.

I started this green blouse. I just realized (it was stated quite clearly in the beginning of the pattern) that I have to use one strand for the lower half and the two strands for the upper half. I have been using two strands for the lower half! That is so great.

Currently in frogging land,
