Farfalle Knot Quagmire

The Farfalle knot section is the most difficult, complex piece of knitting I have ever attempted. I've lost count of the number of times I've started over. I haven't given up yet, but I've come close. Every single row takes an incredible amount of time and counting and recounting. But I am doggedly continuing. Susan in Sonoma

I promise it will be the most difficult part of the Cannioterra--smooth sailing after that!

I struggled with it too as I don't always pay close attention to my knitting. Once I got over the fact that I had to follow every single instruction closely it went pretty smoothly. I'm sure I did at least four samples before I could work it without a problem.

Everyone assumes they can "get it" immediately. The wonderful thing about knitting is the variety it provides us!

I finished mine last night. Decided only to do 3 repeats because I couldn't take any more! Yes, it was a challenge, but at least I've proved to myself that I can do cables. (Not that I would want to!) I'm glad to hear that the garlic and vines is less difficult.
