    Talking Creative crocheting......

    is when you are working on a pattern (and watching TV at the same time) you don't realize that you forgot to do 2 rows, way back 32 rows ago! This is on an afghan that is worked along the length!

    It doesn't hurt the pattern, so what would you do in this case?

    I ripped out 2 rows, and repeated my mistake, now it looks like it belongs!

    Arlene, by ripping out the 2 rows, it was exactly in the same place as the first mistake! lol How could I go wrong?

    Now I have to remember to keep repeating this mistake!

    Too far in to turn back.

    I'm sure you're the only one that would notice and if you repeat the "mistake", then it's a design not a mistake.

    LOL, I would have taken it all apart depending on how many times I made the mistake.

    I'm working on a length wise afghan now and have taken it apart soooooooo many times that now I'm just going with the flow and finishing it. I'm at the point where I don't care if it lives in the closet, lol, I just want to finish it and I need the experience.

    Good luck on remembering the mistake throughout the afghan.
