crafty_packrat: Grommit knitting intarsia (Grommit)
[personal profile] crafty_packrat
I'm knitting the Jasmine mitts with Crystal Palace Mini-Mochi (color 101, Intense Rainbow), and since I'm 2/3rds of the way done with the second mitt I find a knot in the yarn.

A knot tying orange to *green*.

Needless to say, *that* will ruin the color progression like a ruin-y thing.

I might be able to salvage things by frogging the mitt completely, turning the yarn around, and knitting it in the other directions, because I cast on at greenish blue.

But this does disrupt my plans to make the niece socks out of Crash Into Ewe's Jewel sock yarn (in Pink Tourmaline). Admittedly, she does wear almost the exact size of shoe I do, so I can finish up the Simplicity Socks and have them ready to give if I can't get the pink socks done in time

Oh, I get you. Yeah. Very uncool. Can you, I don't know, wind off the yarn until you get to the next correct color, you know, a spot where you can splice it with less obviousness, and save the mis-sequenced section for extras?
