Progress(?)

My first attempt at knitting in a few months began inauspiciously. My technique, which is much a work in progress as my 'project' temporarily deserted me, and I managed to transfer the whole edifice from one needle to the other, backwards! With some heavy duty assistance from M (involving pulling the whole thing off the needle, threading it back on again the right way around, and then answering a query perhaps every two minutes) I managed to get back to where I started, and add a couple more rows. I clearly have some way to go yet. (About nine more rows, if I want to make it square.)
