I took the “giant garter stitch scarf” off the needles last night, only to find that I dropped a stitch about 8 rows back. I am not looking forward to un-knitting it to there… I wonder if I can just rip it back…

I grew up in New England, did a short stint in the U.S. Navy after high school, worked in various factories, built & renovated houses, and finally moved to the Carolinas in 1998 to start working at what was then a large regional bank and is now a really big nationwide bank.
I work doing SharePoint management site management. After work I make soap, knit, ride my motorcycle, read, watch movies & eat.
I ride a Yamaha V-Star 1300. I am pretty sure that I want to hike the Appalachian Trail someday, or possibly do a long-distance rowing trip. I'll be retiring in a few years, and hope to run a craft soap-making business to bring in some cash.

Hey, you don’t have to rip back, just pick up the stitch and bring it back up. Here are some directions http://www.thedietdiary.com/blog/lucia/421 or this one on video http://www.knittinghelp.com/videos/knitting-tips
Hope this helps!

Turns out, this isn’t a dropped stitch, it is a hole where I messed up the tension when changing to a new ball of yarn. When we rip it, we’re going to take photos so that I can document the fix. Otherwise, it would be done by now.
Lesson learned: when switching to a new ball, take the time to go back and join at the start of a row!
