Sad - Ripping

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!
