D'oh! Hooked too fast

[zvi]

So, I was making a cute little purse, and I managed to attach one of the handles with a twist in it.

Normally, this would not be a problem, I'd just undo a couple of loops and untwist, but I wove in the ends before I saw what I'd done. Does anyone have suggestions other than cutting the long strap entirely and doing it over? I can do that, I have the yarn for it, I'm just wondering if there's a better solution.

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Ooh, been THERE.

Can you unweave the ends at all? It takes a little time, but I've pulled it off before, and it'd be way better than having to redo the strap entirely. I find getting a regular-size sewing needle after the ends is easier than trying to do it with a tapestry needle or crochet hook.

Yes, I'd also attempt to unweave the troublesome end if you can find it at all. I understand from elsewhere you made it in acrylic, so it won't felt (felting might conceal 90% of the problem). Good luck!
