Not sure how to fix this one (the purple.) I set down the work about 10 sts in and picked it up to finish the row…eneded up with the picture.

I don’t see the problem…sorry. Your edges look uneven…losing stitches I’m thinking…

I count sts every 2 rows just to be sure :slight_smile:

Thanks for the 2nd pic. That makes it clearer! Now I can see the difference. It looks like you will have to do some unknitting, get back to where you went off track and start up again!!!

Smart of u to notice your error right away. You don’t have that much unknitting to do.

Keep up the good work!!!

So i found the start of the error…i think. Should i proceed from there or unravel to the end of the last row?

I dont even know how i made the mistake other than when i picked up the knitting to continue, i started with the left needle instead of the right? Im left handed but i learned right handed i think…the needle i add to with the working yarn is in my right hand…if that makes sense? In the picture that is not the case.

Nice even knitting!
Yes, probably when you picked up the knitting mid-row, you started off in the wrong direction. Check the last stitch worked which has the yarn strand coming off it. That needle should be in your right hand if you are knitting right handed.
I’m also a lefty who learned to knit right handed.
