Left and right strike again

I designed a pot-holder with the symbol for The Artist formerly Known as Prince.

I was motoring along last night (while watching Game of Thrones) and this morning decided to take a picture of my progress.



See what I have done there?

Yup I have the symbol in mirror image.

It's suppose to look like this:



So I had to do this:



And then pick up these stitches without twisting them:



So I could get myself reoriented again:




I lost eight rows - but in the process I also altered the pattern to make the curl curlier.

Stay tuned for the finished project. I hope Prince is smiling down on me.

That was much too much to deal with this morning - I am going to go for a swim now - butterfly should be a snap after this and at least both arms move together so left and right shouldn't enter into it at all!
