Correcting Mistakes

If you made a mistake and you noticed after working quite a number of rows you still can correct your mistake without interrapting your work. If you work with woolen yarns with high elastisity then this exercise is quite easy to accomplish. Woolen yarns are not slippery and therefore, stitch will stay without a needle at the position where you left it.
