It wasn't until the last stitch....

...that I realized something was wrong.   Very wrong. 

     
Yes, that's a sock cuff...but wait...why are two of four needles lying there loose?   What happened to the nice triangle? 

Clearly, I'm not ready to watch TV while knitting sock cuffs.   It was getting harder and harder...I thought maybe I was just tired.   Um...no.    Now I have to figure out how to re-insert the third needle.

And it was all going so well.   I thought.
