You would think it would be really, really, really hard to mess up something done almost entirely in garter stitch. But I have one project that, for whatever reason, seems completely error prone -- and I never notice the errors until I'm several rows beyond where the mistakes were made. Nothing to do but rip.

So I ripped. The problem with ripping is that while I know it is the right thing to do, it always leaves me feeling a little disappointed and it kills whatever momentum I had going. Tonight is a pretty low-accomplishment level night. And knowing that my other goal was to start on that second sleeve of Gormley wasn't very much more motivational. I accomplished a little bit, but couldn't keep myself motivated.

However, I do have the latest copy of Interweave Knits -- which is really incredible! There are two or three things that I can imagine making. I must have the Corset Pullover and I am fascinated by the Raccoon Jacket. So I think tonight will be a good night for doing a little reading and letting the needles have a rest. Tomorrow Julie and I start our Fair Isle and Intarsia class at Knitting Workship, and I am sure that will be the inspirational kick I need to get myself moving in the right direction again.
