Michelle of Bristly Thistle goofed on a stitch diagram for a class-and her students made something beautiful! It's proof that mistakes are sometimes better than the "right" way.

Back in the early days of my EGA career, I did a correspondence course. The teacher critiqued it and said I had done them "wrong", mystifying both me and the facilitator. But since they were all the same, it was ok. Like I would have taken them out? Not a chance.
I certainly would have wanted to know what was wrong. Then you can decide whether to fix it or not, or do better the next time. Mistakes are the greatest learning tools there are.
