Yesterday I knitted a baby bootie.  The day before I ripped out half a baby bootie and started over.  I will not make a matching baby bootie.  Why?  Well.  The directions confused me.  So I followed them the best I could.  (all I can say is Thank God for instructional videos on the internet and my personal library of reference materials)  I really think those directions are not quite right, but maybe if I really understood them, they are.  The bootie is cute.  I might try again with better yarn someday.  I did experiment with a couple of new things so that makes me feel quite accomplished.  a- kitchener stitch=way neat way to seam, really like doing this and definitely will do it again.  b-pick up stitches vertically, ok, I think I can do this again!  c-knitting stitches in the middle of the row only, now THIS was interesting!  and it worked!  so that is cool.

The moral of the story is this:

Don't be afraid to experiment and try new things.
