Remember this photo??? Yeah... well I got even farther than that. I had the entire back done and only needed to do the front yoke/straps. When I realized that something I had done at the armholes didn't work out. Sooo I would need to tear it back (frog it) all the way back to there. WELLLLLL.... then there was the little matter of not liking how I had set up the seam. Meaning there was one. When really I'd rather it just be in the round to begin with.
Now the question became... to frog it ALL or just back to the armholes? Keep in mind this is fingering weight yarn. And Many Many Many hours of work.
I wrestled with the decision for about 2 hours before I finally started over. From the beginning. Grrrr! But better to do it right than half way. Especially since I am making a pattern for all of you lovelies. So you are welcome. :) haha.
Now it looks like this:

OH and I'm a moron by the way. As if all that frogging wasn't bad enough. I got a pretty good way into the new knitting and realized I had placed the end of the round at center back. Not where I had wanted it at the side 'seam'. Soooo yeah. Frogging AGAIN.
Here's how much I had to frog for a SECOND time:

Good times people. Good times.
And it's a good thing that I have extreme faith that this design will be (eventually) totally killer. At this point, it better be or I will cry over how many hours I have put into this one! All because of my own lack of attention for the most part. Sigh. I gotta work on that! ;)
So enjoy my mistakes and make yourself feel better for all those times you maybe had to do it too.
We ALL do it!
That's why F-R-O-G is a four letter word!
