Knitting near-disaster
Dec. 7th, 2007 02:21 pmEek. I just had a knitting near-disaster.
I have finally cast on for the Cherie Amour sweater. I'm using the Knitpicks Harmony options needles - I don't have the full set, just a couple of cables and size 10, 13, and 15. First time I've used interchangeable circular needles.
And I felt my hand bump against a hard end, and looked down - and there I am, merrily part way through a round, and the CABLE HAS COME OFF THE END OF THE RIGHT NEEDLE. EEEEK. It was a few dozen stitches back. Managed to feed it back through and get it back onto the needle, with help. Found out the left needle was really loose, too, tightened that back up.
I guess I just need to train myself to check and tighten them every row or so?
