If I try to pick up a dropped stitch I end up dropping about 4 more off the adjoining needles. I admit I am not dexterous. Any tips for avoiding this - apart from getting a re-boot of brain-hand coordination?

How about putting a few adjacent needles each side to Holding Position before you attempt the pickup.

Thank you both, very much. Those ideas are less extreme than the solution I came up with over lunch - take the whole lot off the machine, lay flat, fix, put back on the machine. I'll try your ideas first!
