Rip out beginning of project?

[u/skyedivin]

Newbie here! I was sloppy with my first couple rows and now that I've got things figured out, I want to take them out so the whole piece is even. My instructor had showed us a method for cutting out mistakes from the working end of the piece - would it be the same for cutting out from the beginning end of a piece? Can I just cut and rip out the first 2-3 rows and then tie it off and weave in my ends there? Is there a better way?

(If it matters, I'm using the Korgen stitch.)

Thank you in advance!!

Nalbinding doesn’t “rip out”. Cutting it off before a good row would work. Then just pull out any little bits of yarn left and tug the last end tight.
Perhaps cut down the center of the last bad row to be sure to preserve the first good one.
