Haste Makes Waste...

Or in my case... a few new design elements.

I'm speeding along with the Sampler Blanket and have finished the fourth strip.  When I went to photograph it, I placed it down and then realized it was upside down, so I flipped it and realized that half the stitch patterns were facing one way, and half the other.  Ugh!  It really only affects one pattern when faced upside down... so I am going to consider this a design element (unless I cave, and rip out the one swatch and do it over).  

Double Lace Rib...reverse side.

Double Lace Rib - public side

Double Parallelogram Stitch

Diagonal Ridges Stitch

Diagonal Seed Stitch

Error #2 - This is the Not-so "All Over Eyelets" - where I was tired and mistakenly did something wonky on my PSSO.  I'm OK with it.  It's still an interesting design element... but not quite what was originally intended.  This stays.

Lattice Stitch.  I like the way this wandering cable stitch looks when finished (and I like it even more when it's blocked) - but this is definitely a Hocus Pocus Stay On Focus stitch.  I really can't do much of anything else when I'm knitting this one.

So there you have it.  Four of five strips are knit.  I'll probably rip out the Double Lace Rib and redo it.  We'll see how it goes.

SOmething tells me YOU will rip out that small imperfection square....You are a perfectionist and that's okay!
