    Those birds! Amazing!!

    And, finished with flaws is not likely to be worn.

    But unfinished is even less likely to be worn?

    Finished with flaws is always going to irritate, I think.

    I’ve worn every sweater I’ve knitted to rags, flaws and all. Being perfect – attempting to be perfect – sounds so tiring. “Perfect enough” is my motto.

    I suppose it depends on the severity of the flaws. “The perfect is the enemy of the good” and all. Small flaws that most people won’t see, they stay and I go on. Something that changes the appearance enough for the untutored public to notice? That usually gets ripped out. It’s a balance.

    Finished might be better than perfect, but the finished quality still needs to be good enough. I try not to be a perfectionist, and I certainly have plenty of “design features” in my handknits, but there is such a thing as finished and worthless.
