Frog It!

I'm so discouraged! I just had to frog about 5 inches of my Tempting II. I had about eight inches done and realized that the earlier mistakes I made that I thought I could over look are unacceptable. Plus, it seems I somehow started knitting in the wrong direction (?) because the ribbing started looking like it had a stripe in it. This is my first project to knit in the round; is it possible to knit the wrong way?
Anyway, I'm sick about all of the hours I just frogged, but I'll keep on knitting. Perhaps I'll have my Tempting II finished by winter time....

The first thing that I ever knit, I picked it up midpoint and started knitting in the wrong direction. Don't be too discouraged. Keep at it. Anytime I rip something out, it's always much better the second (or 3rd or 4th) time around.

Knitting in the wrong direction happens when you get your work flipped inside out. If you always remember that the LAST stitch you knit is the one the yarn comes from you should be okay.
