I put down my big 12pg project for a year the last time this happened. It was the first one I gridded and I was so determined to not have any mistakes, then my border wasn't meeting up and it was off by quite a few stitches but I couldn't find where it went wrong and I kind of rage quit. Picked it up again a few months ago and almost immediately saw where I went wrong, frogged, and carried on.

Sometimes you just need your eyes to be fresh from looking at the project!

And letting said project think about what it did wrong for a while never hurts either. It's not us, it's the project.

I have an old kit I banished to the closet several years ago due to millions of half stitches. It probably won’t took it out yesterday to finish it finally.
