Sometimes this is a good thing. Crocheting. Two errors. The first regards dishcloths. I can't use the same pattern, scaled down. The material just doesn't work correctly. I am trying simple single stitches but that gets too tight. Perhaps looser or/and skipping stitches? I'll work on it. As for the blanket? I have learned a great deal. I have about a third of the first skein stitched, and it is looking quite right.
I reviewed the video. Which helped, though too as I run the stitches I stop to check my work. If needed stitches are pulled, several times so far, if usually not far. The edges are being kept even, but by eyeing the project and using whichever of several row stopping methods which allow alignment rather than just following instructions. That allows me to correct for tension problems. Not bad.
I can work longer, without cramping, though the smaller hook, well... not so much. I'll get better at that too. Surprised how well and fast improvements are occurring.
It looks like butchering chickens this or next weekend. I am looking forward to training. This will let me know if I will try to raise meat birds next year. I'll help this couple any time they want help. I am pretty sure about the meat birds. All the practice I can get would be for the better. Social time is a rare plus too.
Later.
