Should I undo my knots if I made a mistake?

Hey there, I'm using the chart of a pattern at the moment and I just realized that I missed two knots of white at the beginning of the row. I'm at the end of the row rn and would have to undo about 23 knots to get back to it. Should I finish this row and do the correct thing in the next row or undo my knots?

I would say it depends on how much you care. If you don’t really care if it looks a bit off it that part and you don’t really want to undo all the knots I would say just leave it but if you think it will bother you then undo it if you want.

@x_x Thanks for the reply, I think I'll just leave it since I wouldn't mind it looking a bit off.

personally it bothers me, so i undo my rows when i mess up but as said before it depends! if you don’t mind / can’t really tell with the pattern i wouldn’t. Undoing the knows for me sometimes leads to the strings unravel or even break so it depends if you want to take the risk !

@marie_k My heart would break if it unraveled lol. I actually finished that alpha yesterday and it only looks a little off so I'm happy

@marie_k is right! The strings become more vulnerable to knots and breakage when you undo knots. At least in my experience!
