I feel so stupid

I am knitting a lace shawl.  When I talk I tend to talk with my hands.  I just dropped 5 stitches because I was gesturing to much. With all the yarn overs and knit 3 together through back loops.  There is no way to fix this.  Im so mad at myself.  Thankfully I have a lifeline 20 rows back, but I lost a whole weekend of work

argh, thats annoying.

Thank goddess there was a lifeline!
Back in the days Ive had a similar experience & its really nerve racking.

But I m sure the joy with your shawl is coming back soon.
Keep your needles busy

Ive spent a good part of the day picking up stitches from my lifeline. Its lace weight so not easy. But I will be able to get back to stitching tomorrow  Post time 2024-7-2 07:41

Dont despair, we have all done that! ;)

I am so sorry you lost all that work, but I see it as more knitting for the same yarn price LOL

OH!! I know exactly how you feel!  Many have been the pieces Ive ripped out and abandoned because of mistakes.  I hope you manage to get back to your lifeline and continue to your satisfaction.
