yeah it's realll tangly :"( i'm trying to do a 1x1 rib instead of stockinette or garter which means that it's not joining right either i don't think? aughh. i'm experimenting with some scrap yarn now to see if it will look really dumb to do all the stripes separate and then seamlessly join afterwards...
i'm making my SO this scarf from an anime he likes (yuru camp)!! so in theory not a complicated project but it's proving a real pain
