When you have no choice but to quit?

We are all taught as children never to quit. Never give up.
What happens when you have no other choice? I recently joined a knit-along and was SUPER excited by it b/c the charts were clear enough to read!
Well, the first one was. The second was not. I got half of what I think was a color-work hat knitted and had to give up b/c I couldn't read the damned pattern - AGAIN!
It is demoralizing. I'm using the magnifying tools I have and I can't get it big enough to see w/o losing the lines of the grid to blurriness. I'm not someone who gives up easily, and sometimes I have no choice to do just that.

Grrr. Its a grumpy day at Camp Cranky.
