Gonna try and be more active now that life is settling down more. Also, would appreciate advice on craft block and generally getting into knitting

While I had my struggles, I'm actually really proud of my first #WIP and I'm already planning to make two more, just to get my basics down. After all, I won't improve if I don't allow myself to have those initial struggles. I'm looking forward to how I'll grow!

Would highly suggest going and getting a few more: this store was one of the third that were originally going to stay open (and performed really well) but it’s barren in a lot of second

Guess this is kind of a reminder that I’m doing okay overall, especially when it comes to creativity. Hopefully I’ll maintain this energy when I start my sweater and garment making this month, too

I do think I’m gonna add my scrap ball scarves to the bucket and work into I effectively make it overflow (i.e. until they tumble one too many times) because I want to make the most of what will probably be an entire day of blocking

I'm going to step away from my hooks tonight because this really disappointed me. Thankfully, I can make other garments but like... Sometimes, the pattern making community really reminds you that straight sizes matter most, even if that's not the intent.

This is a big reason why pattern tests shouldn't just be scaled up: I want proof that you've have bigger bodies test and make these patterns to actually fit them. Just doing math isn't enough: you can't just make things exponentially larger and expect that to work.

Thank you! It's my first time with this stitch but I really love it
