If you make a mistake in your knitting late in the evening, resist the urge to rip it out. Put it aside until tomorrow. Chances are the mistake won’t look as daunting in the morning when your eyes are sharper and you are rested. 11pm is my bewitching hour and I never rip out after that time. If you want to keep knitting after your bewitching hour, grab an easy project and knit til the wee hours!

You’ve heard of the carpenter’s mantra, “Measure twice, cut once.” Knitters should count twice, knit once. It is painful to get to the end of a 187 stitch set up row and find out you only have 186 stitches!

This darling footie with the butterfly motif gives you plenty of reasons to smile. The picot hemmed cuff is followed by an eye of partridge heel and is finished with Michelle’s eye of partridge toe. Knit with Sugar Rush by Queensland giving it a yummy softness perfect for luxurious bed socks or stylish sport socks. Debuted as Mystery Sock #16 in July 2009.
