Henry Scarf RIP

Henry Scarf RIP by flissy666.
This patterns should have been straightforward, but one little error can mean unpicking 400 stitches. After doing this three times, I lost the will to live.

Frogged it and put it away for a couple of months until I've calmed down >:(

It wasn't *that* difficult, but the fact there were 450 stitches on your needle got a little unweildy. And it was taking me an hour per row (and there were 175 in total)! Someone else who made it complained that it was taking them 20 minutes per row; little did they know...

Oh no! Crap!

450 stitches sounds simply CRAZY! They'd keep slipping off on me!

Claudia, I could have cried. I'd spent 14 HOURS on it to get this far. nd then I found out that I was slipping stitches knit-wise instead of purl-wise (slip stitch pattern). The fabric looked wonderful, but I just lost all enthusiasm. It's frogged and well out of sight not. Gonna divert my energies into Etsy making...
