These swatches will be used in the "Knitting 911" class I'm teaching tomorrow.  This class is a blast -- my swatches are full of mistakes that we fix in class.  Everything from an incorrect stitch mount, to a missed stitch, to a dropped stitch, to dropping a stitch on purpose to fix a mistake, to ripping, to tinking, to the grand finale -- cutting the knitting.    What can I say, it's empowering!  Once you can fix mistakes you no longer worry about making them -- fear not your knitting :-)

Fixing my own mistakes was a very empowering stage of my knitting.
I wish I had had such a talented and fun teacher as you. Your students are lucky to have the opportunity to call this repair fun.

I totally agree. I once actually LOVED fixing my mistakes, because it meant I COULD.

Now, it just means I HAVE to. :)
