I may try again some other time. Your beefield looks gourgous, I started, and frogged it. I may try again some other time.

And I'm the same way, Opal. No one else would ever be able to see a tiny mistake 15 rows back, but if I noticed it I'd have to break out the dpns and ladder it. I have a lovely cross-stitch that I did some years ago of a young woman looking in a mirror in her wedding dress. Along the back of the dress, there are supposed to be French knots for buttons. I realized that I forgot to do those only after I'd had it framed! Oh, it's beautiful, etc., (and no one would EVER know if I didn't keep pointing it out to them) but I see those little darn non-existent French knots every time I look at it. *sigh* It’s really pretty.

I enjoyed reading all about your Bee shawl and I am very glad that you did not have to unknit that row. I love the picture of your edging, it looks like it is a picture in Victorian Lace Today. I know what you mean about new projects, I may be in need of an intervention very soon myself. Thank you for the lace cast-on link, it is very helpful and informative.
