Past time

I used to have a blog/online journal where I wrote just about my life and blah blah.

Much of it was very teen-angsty (don’t blame me too much, I was a teen after all). And
mostly talked about the ongoing war I have with depression and other mental health issues.

I’m not going down that route again. only problem is that I don’t have much else to talk about it seems. Not politics. books, music, school, my job or what I do on my free time. All of it is absorbed in a black hole of depression and anxiety. It hurts, really bad.

Knitting new: I was 30% into the somewhat cowl, having joined and made a couple of inches more. and tried it on, as recomended.

It was huge! figure that out?

I did. The pattern ranges from 32-44inches over the bust. I don’t fit the chart, I’m to small :P   The problem was that instead of lowering the amount of stiches, I made it bigger. Why?

Because my gauge was off. Instead of 24st pr 4inch I had 19. Instead of dividing the numbers I added to them.

I ripped it all out and now have grapefruit sized ball of yarn and one inch of knitted fabric, this time, hopefully the math is ok though (If I need to rip it out again, I will knit it with a completly different pattern, I swear)

    Actually, it’s a pretty simple pattern.. now I’m trying to attach them together – had already forgotten how tedious that can be.. Thank you for commenting :)

    I Hope you’ll get better.
