I was happily knitting along on the left and right fronts. Easy, breezy, no problems. Then I stopped for the evening and admired my work. Then I thought for a moment.

Aren't there supposed to be two buttonholes in the buttonhole row? The kit came with 6 buttons, not 3. So I looked again at the pattern and sure enough there was a repeat * to * that I skipped.

Do I keep going and forget that buttonhole? Do I just sew on a button to make it appear as though the hole is in place?

After some hemming and hawing, I decided that the buttonhole really needed to be made, but I didn't want to frog. So I got to the correct set of 4 stitches and dropped them down; carefully reworked the stitches; created a buttonhole.

Then I saw this:

Those buttonholes aren't on the same row!!!!!!!!! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So another 30 minutes of dropping, reworking, creating...

You can bet I'll be reading those instructions more carefully!!
