technique!

so guess what has cheered me up from my wahwah baby funk? knitting! i was working on my february lady sweater last night and i noticed a mistake. i kept it, hoping it would be alright, but alas, that was not the case. this morning the 7 stitch repeat turned into a 5 stitch repeat! i think it was a lack of yarn overs, but can't be sure. so... what did i do? since i suck at taking knitting back two or three rows, i took the five stitches off the needles, ripped it back to the garter stitch yoke, and reworked them back up. this is the second or third time i have done it, and although a couple of the stitches are wonky to begin with, it comes out in the washing/blocking stage. i am proud of me, and feel good about it! yay me!
