Well, after many, many attempts I finally got the knotted wad in the yarn. :-)
I made a beginner mistake. Of course, I am a beginner so I don't feel too bad. I just started using yarn straight out of the skein. I didn't make a ball first. The yarn got a HUGE knot in it about 3/4 of the way through. It was bad because I had so much on the needles I didn't want to frog it. So I had to undo the partial ball that I had already started. It took at least 3 weekends of frustration to finally get it undone.
I must admit, I am very excited now to keep on working on the sock. Of course, I have learned my lesson the hard way but i do feel proud of getting it fixed. There were many times I wanted to just grab some scissors, cut out the yarn, and restart.
Onward and upward.:-)
I can continue now |
