Stocking Update Week 1

The first full week of stitching didn't go smoothly.
I ended up doing a lot of ripping. šŸ˜¢

First mistake 

I counted only 7 stitches here up to the top step. 
It should have been 10. Except it turned out to be right and I made too many triangles. But I didn't realize that until later.

Mistake Number 2

I ripped out that top row, made the side 10 stitches 
and redid the top row and started down the other side 
when I realized I had missed a step.

All correct, finally!

By the time I got this in correctly my eyes were crossed-eyed!


I have resorted to marking my pattern.

I have never had to mark my progress before 
but if it helps me stay in the right place it will be worth. 
My eyes aren't as young as they used to be.
