Dont listen to it! Once you have wound it into a ball it will keep stalking you!!!

I casted on for a pair of quick socks in brown for project spectrum..got 1 row dont and found a join in the wool. Took it as a sign that I was meant to finish something else before knitting the socks so frogged it and went back to some UFOs! lol
