I’ve had a bit of a mishap since the last post 🥲.
Soooo I was near the middle row (43) of this part of the pattern:

The even rows are pretty much just knit-the-knits and purl-the-purls, which means rows 42-44 were identical. I had stopped somewhere around there and wasn’t totally sure if I’d noted down the correct row number for where I stopped. I tried the next row and kept checking my work to see if I was doing it right or knitting a duplicate row.
It turned out I was fine, but I ended up forgetting one of the cables in the row because I was so distracted. Then while I was undoing the last row, one of my needles slipped and I dropped a bunch of stitches 😭.
By that point, since I was already pretty uncertain about whether I was doing it correctly, I just decided to start over 🤷♂️
Current State
I restarted and got back up to basically the same place that I was at last time.
Hopefully there are no more issues like that from now on 😩
