knitting :: undo & redo

3.15.2011


i found several sock patterns (with design) that i really like and would like to give them a try. i began with mystery sock '09 (pattern by kirsten kapur) but didn't turn out the way it looked so i had to take it apart. since the first selected pattern didn't work out for me, i decided to move on with the next pattern which is the popular monkey sock by cookie a. i followed the pattern exactly but mine came out weird looking. again i have no clue what went wrong and still trying to figure it out after reknitting it three times. i felt stupid because the monkey is a well written pattern. therefore, i'm taking a break from it and will have to come back to the monkey pattern when i'm ready to restart. in the mean time, i'm starting over with another pattern called tidal wave socks. this time let's see if i will get this pattern right. btw, there are all sorts of goodies on the web and i just love finding free knitting patterns.
