Take 2

I have my yarn! I have been talking with my house mom over the past week when I had time between studying in the library, and we figured out the best plan of action. I showed her many patterns and ask how do-able they were, and unfortunately she did not know how to teach the more complex pattern. After we talked we realized that it would be best for me to keep it simple and master the basics better.

I realized that because I needed  to buy so much yarn to make a blanket, I would rather make one that looks good and then be able to go from there one day to make a better blanket that I know I won't mess up. When I realized that I would have to look at the perl stitch online again in order to be able to start my blanket, I knew that it wasn't time to move on to more complex things. When our guest lecturer came and talked about practice and the importance of it, the lecturer mentioned that it took at least 10,000 hours of practice to master something. While I don't think I will reach that any time soon, I realize that I need more practice before I can go onto bigger and better things.

Let's see how much knitting I can get done in between studying for my finals!

Drowning in Yarn!!
