oops

So, while watching a movie last night I knit & turned both sock heels, then figured out how to do the gusset:
with an extra needle pick up & knit the gusset stitches on one side, then knit across the instep stitches making sure to slip all the stitches of the OTHER sock, then pick up and knit the other gusset stitches. knit back to where I dropped the OTHER sock's yarn and repeat with the other gusset -> instep -> gusset. Next row knit all stitches back onto the three or four needles I was using before the gussets (alternating stitches, like before), then decrease as usual.

Then the movie ended and I saw, to my horror, that a couple of rows before starting the heels, I'd crossed a stitch.

Sigh.

Frig. I mean, frog.

Today while waiting for th'Mr, who was getting a catscan, I knit a bunch of rows on the f-i-l's mosaic lapghan.
