I got 15 sts in before the little red angel on my shoulder whispered, &#8220;it would be SOOO much faster to frog it! just rip it out&#8230;it&#8217;ll be fine.&#8221;&#8230;..and the white angel said, &#8220;oh no, that&#8217;s scarey! what if it ends badly?&#8221;&#8230;..but the efficient and gutsy side of me won out and so, I laid out the blanket and&#8230;<\/br>called Lisa. :) <\/br><br \/>\nAfter a pep talk from her, then I began to rip &#8211; it was a bit fun (I must confess) and so I picked up 204 sts and lived to tell the tale. :)<br \/>\nand now I go back to knitting on the blanket and watching the Olympics.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a pic of my knitting all footloose and fancy free!<\/br><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.metzroth.com\/katie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/small_IMG_8818.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.metzroth.com\/katie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/small_IMG_8818-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"wow blanket frogged\" title=\"wow blanket frogged\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-318\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.metzroth.com\/katie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/small_IMG_8818-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.metzroth.com\/katie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/07\/small_IMG_8818.jpg 360w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/br><\/br>(2\/22\/2010 7:46 pm)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, it has been an eventful night.
