"Tinking Villemo" sounds like the name of a movie or something... I was within 45 rows of completing this shawl when I noticed that something wasn't right. I was already at the number of stitches I needed for the last point but I still had three points left to knit.
So I compared the width and this end was much narrower than the other end. So I ripped back to the place where both ends were the same width then tinked back to a row I could recognize.
It's back on the needles and ready to go but unfortunately I've lost some steam on this project and haven't picked it up since I ripped it out yesterday. I really want to wear it though so I have to start knitting again! Note to self: Do not knit and watch Downton Abbey at the same time. Apparently it's too easy to get caught up in the show and start knitting two together willy-nilly!
I love the title of this post...but hate that you had to rip! hope you get back on track with it - that blue is so pretty on you. (and I think we need to find the right thing to knit for DA - I've spent too much time with that show NOT to knit during it!)

It's hard when we have to rip back so much but I hope you will soon feel motivated by your desire to wear it!

Oh yes, I understand completely. Let it rest a few days. You'll finish it in no time!
