the agony of defeat
It's called a counted thread em-
broidery for a reason!
You need to count.
Bah!
I like the colors and think it will work overall, but for right now I'm going to have to pull out a quarter of that satin stitch section. It's two threads off! All because I failed to COUNT.
Oh well. What's time to a monkey?
[and these are not the subtly different colors called for by the pattern, I changed my mind.]

Can you even see what you're supposed to be counting? I loved doing counted cross stitch till I came across those little tiny threads. Can't see a thing!
It's beautiful though, and I'm really sorry it has to come out.

I agree with Sheri. How can you see what you're counting? You must have very young eyes!
