Third times the charm

Well I hope it is anyway. 
For some idiotic reason, when separating 
The body and sleeves I looked at the directions 
And seeing CO I cast off the number so stitches. 
Completely forgetting that BO is casting off
And CO is casting on more stitches 


So I’m back to square one
I’m blaming all the stuff that’s going on right now
On my total screw up here. 

The only consolation is, I don’t kneed to start another project. 
This one is keeping me very busy! 

Honestly. I thought the cable would be the hardest bit. 
Please pray to the god of knitting and crochet to 
Help me   I really need it

  1. I not surprised you're having trouble concentrating, considering all your current worries. Good for you for persevering. But that's one of your many superpowers.

  2. Just leave it as is and wear it as a little stole/cape on your shoulders!

    1. An excellent idea.
      If I have to pull it out once more that’s definitely what I’m going to do

  3. Worry really does mess with your brain, big time. Just take your time and it will all come right in the end, although I do like Debra's suggestion. Ingenious!

  5. You've got this. We tend to get so caught up with the new techniques that the old ones we know by heart let us down.

    1. It’s totally fine. You’re so busy. It’s best to get it all done before winter really sets in
