one hundred and fifty nine

Want to get better at something? Make mistakes! Change course in the middle, backtrack and move forward in a new direction. Change your plan and make something better!

Not every project you start has to be perfect. Not every pattern needs to be followed from step one to ten. Many times, deviating from the course or fixing a mistake will lend you a deeper understanding of your job or it will show you a solution you hadn’t yet thought of!

Catherine has been knitting a large scale project that she decided on herself. A couple days, and a few inches into it, she had second thoughts. No problem, let’s rip it out and start again! No need to be discouraged or to insist on finishing what you start.

Test, try, make mistakes, fail, try, succeed.

(Rinse and Repeat!)
