Something about my brain is refusing to accept switching sides. I forget which one I’m supposed to do every time. I know practice makes perfect but it’s gonna take a lot of practice to make up for my bonkers brain.

Just wanted a bit of a rant. I guess I’ll keep making squares and trying my best.

    It will make a big difference if you learn to “read” your knitting so you don’t have to try to remember. For a standard ribbing, if the stitch you are about to work is in a columns of V’s, you knit it. Otherwise you purl. Of course, that probably doesn’t help much with the setup row…

      Yeah, I’m still struggling with that. I’m having trouble seeing what’s a little scary purl and what’s a knit. Maybe I need better lighting.
