Comments: Picking up and ripping out....

Oh maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! This doesn't sound like the funnest knit that ever was. ;) Maybe you haven't been drinking enough diet carcinogen? *teehee*

Well I think the trimming looks great! It's flat and gorgeous, but if a few loose stitches are bugging you just thread the yarn needle and tighten them up. That should do the trick.

All I can say is that I empathize! OK, maybe a few other things like good luck with the other side and that I think the edging looks rather good ~ if you hadn't said anything we would have just sat back being amazed and all. Chin up!

Yah, how is the diet coke ban going? A little caffeine would have helped you through this! Come to the dark side.......
I'm glad you figured it all out. "more learning ensued"! You crack me up!
I have a problem with making things match. I don't think I'll ever be good at it!

I think it looks great Leigh, including the corner. We are our own worst critics as they say. Someone did say that right?

OMG! I actually knew what you meant before the "huh?" lol. I think it looks FAB. No one is going to take a magnifying glass to it anyway, and if they did, would they have a clue? I think not! {fingers crossed for left side!}

Very well done! I admire your strength ripping out and picking up those stitches so many times. I would have dragged that out over days. It's going to look beautiful.

i see no issues so that last time must've done the trick! :) p.s. and yes - i was dragged into below entry by tempting photo of scarf and headline only to be all socked and gloved!!! :)

Keep your chin up doll! I know what you mean by the decreases.... Started the second collar for wrappy, then the dreaded sewing!

I know you are sick but I have ants in my pants ;-) How is the left side coming along? ♥

I see you've made your peace with Knitting As a Process. Nice work.
