The bad news:
I had a "little" sock knitting mishap.
Note to self: don't knit with a headache.
At least I found all 60 stitches after ripping a third of the gusset and the entire heel (I mis-centered the heel flap by 3 stitches--quite noticeable in a cable-rib pattern, at least noticeable after knitting the entire heel and a third of the gusset).
I'm going to bed.
In the words of the immortal Scarlett O'Hara, "Tomorrow is another day."

Oh No!! I hope the damage isn't as bad as it looks and that you recover quickly from the headache.
I didn't realize that about Teresa of Avila. I love her comment after falling off the donkey about how God treats his friends :o)
"One day, they say, Teresa was riding a donkey from one of her convents to another. When they came to a big mud-puddle, the sassy donkey balked and threw the saint right into the muck. St. Teresa, always in touch with God, said, 'Lord, why this?' He answered, 'That is the way I treat my friends.' Teresa came back, 'Then no wonder You have so few!

Poor yarn...frogging pics always make me a little sad. I'm glad you found all the stitches again b/c that part is horribly frustrating for me.
Poor yarn is right :(! *sigh*, I've been there...
Hope your headache has cleared up!
Ouch! I'll tell you the little lesson I learned when I don't feel good and try to knit......STEP AWAY FROM THE YARN!!!
Oh you poor thing. Frogging is enough to give even "frogs" a headache!
Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog!
Uck. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sure you'll wind up the yarn & have another go... in a few days' time!
(My projects used to look like this when Toby was a puppy!)
Oh, no. Sorry about the mishap, but glad you found all the stitches. I've found "don't knit lace when sick" after having to tink five rows of a shawl recently. *sigh*
The mitt looks good though.
See! That's philosophical too
