I did quite a bit at mums, I also undid quite a bit too, so I think its about even. If I'm tired I make silly mistakes or if someone is with me I lose count  Confused
I was using this as something to do sitting down in the afternoon, but I am being naughty and pushing myself in the garden as it looks a right mess so not alot of knitting going on currently.
Rain is forecast so if I get the greenhouse jobs done today I can knit tomorrow  Very Happy

Over the last month I have knitted quite a bit. I always take it up to mums with me (showing off  Laughing ) But when I looked at it I realised I had made a major mistake, now me being me would have left it, but Jacky has eagle eyes and would have spotted it at 100 paces  Rolling Eyes  so I had to undo it, beyond my lifeline, and ended undoing(frogging) 16+ rows!!
So I shall pick it up and get going again and will do pics shortly.

Just thought I ought to let you know I am still trying to do this!!!!!!!!

It has gone  Crying or Very sad  taken off the needles by Jacky  Crying or Very sad to be honest she found a fault another 10 rows or so earlier, I had already undone 16 so we decided enough was enough!


but




I do not give up, I am going to give this pattern another go in a slightly heavier weight wool until I can get the hang of the pattern, I still have to read the pattern  Rolling Eyes  Jacky just looks at it and knows where she is  Evil or Very Mad
