Thanks.  It’s good I’m not alone, though I wish us all greater success.

Hi Tracy,

 

I most certainly can empathize with your feelings about your tank top woes. I have had problems with most knitting projects I make. I have been knitting a cable knit scarf and it has been one problem after another. Dropped stitches, knitting the cable in the wrong direction, and skipping three rows in one pattern repeat that I didn’t notice for quite sometime.

All I can say, is keep trucking! A lifeline might help once the top part is done and you are plain knitting the body.

 

 

May God bless you.

 Cathy F

My tank top knitting project is cursed.  First it took me ages to actually start knitting.  Then I had a bit that kept getting twisted.  At last, the other night, I joined the front and back together and started knitting in earnest, and then I dropped a bunch of stitches.  I picked up most of them, but 2 were totally twisted and made a bit of a mess.  So I’ve pulled out all the rows I did during a long meeting, and I’m back to where I was before joining the pieces.  It’s rather depressing.  Maybe I should work out some kind of cleansing ritual before I start going forward again, and try to lift the bad juju.

Just sharing my woes and frustration.

Tracy
