Yesterday the school had its Ofstead inspection and at the moment we are awaiting the final report for the grading but it is a good result. Needless to say the staff are all very happy and relieved. Knitting hasn't been so good. When I started the shawl I made a very silly mistake. So, having done 120 rows I had to take it all out and start again. It took me 2 hours to rip out nearly two weeks knitting work - groan and it looked so lovely too :-( I have started the shawl again and managed 18 rows thus far, at the moment my rows are 360 stitches long and seem to take for ever.I hope you have a good weekend.

You are in good company ripping out shawls. Go to yarnharlot's blog and scroll down to her story about restarting a shawl something like TEN times! It's hilarious!
Congrats on passing the inspection--it's important, I know!
Oh my goodness; it took you 2 hours to rip out your shawl? :( So sad, but I hope it works out beautifully now!
I hope you have a great weekend, too!! :)
The sweater is adorable! I'm glad Ali had a good birthday. I'm sorry you have to fix your shawl. I hate having to fix things like that!
Oh, I am so sad for you. I HATE ripping things apart.
Oh you poor thing! I hate ripping out anything, least of all a shawl because, yeah, there are a lot of stitches on them. Cute little sweater on the teddy; great job there. Looks like you had a nice weekend too!
Hi Jane, ooh Ofsted, my sisters a teacher so I understand how important it is (she gives me plenty of earache when the inspection is due).
Shame about the shawl, after all that work too X
