Thank you for the fabulous! :)
Honestly there's nothing rocket sciency about any of it. Anyone could do the same with those materials. I just muddle through without having a clue or a plan until it comes together.
It's knitting I find full of wizardry. I've tried so many times but it's clearly not genetic. I just don't have the eye for it. I mess up even a simple knit purl stitch. I always drop stitches and wouldn't have a clue how to find my mistakes let alone fix them. A shame as I'd knit lots of things for myself if I could.
