As in not right. "Whew," I was thinking, "finally, ready for the next row!" That was so not true. It turns out in trying to split these individual motifs so I could work the doily in rounds (the one I was working on for Tatting Day) I got the stitch counts backwards on the split rings. Fiddle. Out came the scissors, forty-eight little snip-and-rips later this is what I've got -- a pile of knot wrong.I'm about half way around putting this row back on -- but it's not wrong this time it's Knot Right!

That's a lot of little snip-and-rips. Having done the same thing recently (but only 6 snip-and-rips), I do sympathize. I'm glad it's Knot Right now!
I think I would cry!
And to think we call tatting "relaxing" :)
Oh, the pain!
Horrors! Wish it was only a bad dream! Maybe you could salvage those bits to use as card decorations or to decorate a bag or something?
The pain! The mutilation! Children avert your delicate eyes!!!! :) I sympathize with you....
The lump in my throat at the sight of your surgical precision threatens to choke off my air. Please do show us the "knot right" repair, otherwise *I* might never recover.
You are so much braver than I!
I found myself wincing in sympathy as I read your post. I'm so proud of you for getting back to work on the round before the discouragement could settle in. Way to go!
May you have great success and ease in finishing your project from here on out! :)
I think it looks like a map of a country not sure which one, what a pity you have had so much trouble with it, hope you can get is sorted. I am sure it should look lovely
