When I finished my Reywa cowl a few weeks ago I tried to tell myself that I didn’t mind that the yarn didn’t hold up to grafting well. It didn’t work. There was a spot where the tension was far off. I decided to fix it as best I could.
Before:
After duplicate stitching over the wonky bit:
It is now good enough. It is not perfect, but it doesn’t make me twitchy when I see it, so I’m glad I did it. the loops sticking out are the longer stitches from grafting. I did the best I could, and I’ll just keep that part in the back. I hope the state fair judges don’t judge me too harshly for it.

That is a gorgeous cowl! Your fix for the stitches looks really good! And you are going to do great at the state fair 🙂

How exciting you are entering the state fair! I think they will be so impressed by the colorwork, they will not even notice the grafting.

If not I’ll find a corn dog and local beer and cry on Ivy’s shoulder.

Thank you! I was so annoyed when I couldn’t pull the yarn without it breaking when I was grafting. I’m much happier this way.

Thank you. I can’t bring myself to pack it away. It is out in the yarn room where I can see it.
