Knitting, the Saga

    I vowed to knit a blanket during the COVID pandemic. I do not know how to knit. People in my family do but distance and, well, pandemic, mean I won't be getting any in-person instruction from them. Hello YouTube! Dun dun duunn!

The last  week yielded multiple attempt. I know how to knit and pearl, but I keep dropping stitches. The result is a chaotic blend of unraveling and the sound of my head beating against the desk.

Better Half gave me sweet encouragement after yesterday's efforts resulted in even more snipping and binning. "It's okay to make mistakes. You're a beginner."

That's true, and I appreciated his comfort. 

 I'm hoping I can at least make a potholder before June.
