I keep thinking I'll leave some of them because nobody else will
notice... then I fix them, because _I_ notice. Then I decide I want
to reverse the color pattern. Then I notice some mistakes that
I hadn't seen before... I've reknitted part of this darned hat
five times so far. It's only the lining, but the hat is reversible
so somebody might see the inside someday.

That made me giggle Tamar. It is exactly how I used to be - everything
had to be absolutely perfect as mistakes were not acceptable. I now call
them "changes in the pattern" or "artistic licence".

My Dad had a saying for a situation like that. "A man in a runaway horse
and cart will never stop to complain about it". ;-)
