Old Port hat |
Sadly, I have come to the conclusion I must rip my stitches back to where they numbered 84.
I am devastated. I tried to adjust my knitting to a smaller number, which really gets complicated when doing the final decreases towards the top of the hat. It's just a hat, I thought I could keep working with it. But I realize I cant.
I have a hard time believing no one else seems to have the same problems I have. Projects on Ravelry just seem like such a breeze, even for beginners. I am not a beginner, but I guess I am challenged on one of my mental levels-- I'm aging. It takes me longer to figure things out.
The good news is I love Brioche knitting, I like challenges, and it is only a hat.
I have big dreams for myself and my knitting projects. So many beautiful yarns and patterns from so many young, talented designers. I' ll keep going, as long as I can hold the needles!
Oh and I love sheep!
