A couple of people said similar things, thank you! Love that perspective, and maybe I'll use it to try and make myself less neurotic. I'm also a knitter and I've been known to rip out several dozen rows because I forgot a yarn-over. I really need to let it go. :-)
Haha, I'm a knitter too, and I'll do the same thing! Just last winter I was working on a sweater done in the round, and I got all the way to the armpits before I finally admitted to myself that it was way too big. I will never forget the horror on Fiance's face when I yanked the needles out and started ripping. :mrgreen:
