 |
|
I was very brave the other day as I decided to frog OH's blanket 
Yes thats right one of the foxy ones!!!
I knitted it up wrong (wel differently) and wasn't happy with the end result so I took the plunge and frogged it (all 30 balls of the darling) 
I have now reknitted it again and have nearly finished it for the second time.

Still if you weren't happy with it you did the right thing. It would have niggled away when you looked at it, I like to get things just right where I can

It was truely horrid to frog - really knotty  but as Lilly said it would have niggled away at me if I hadn't undone it.
Im much happier with it now (though its not quite finished)
