I remembered learning knitting at the age of nine or ten and during that time, my mother had to look for those shops selling yarns in order to buy a set of yarns+needles for around $70++ meant for a sweater pattern.
Then I had to visit the shop every week to receive new instructions and assistance for the sweater…
WELL…
HMM…
I…GAVE…UP…
I never even made it to finishing the base rows of the sweater!!
…*SIGH*…
I was very angry, but mostly frustrated because it seemed that I just couldn’t get those stitches correct and when I FINALLY gotten those stitches correct, it was the problem with the tension of my stitches.
Every time I brought the finished piece back to the shop for further instructions, I was asked to redo the rows again and again…so many times until I decided to stop going.
Well, my mother was really mad at me for wasting $70++ on this unfinished project…and even after years later…when she spotted those untouched yarns during one of those annual spring cleaning…I would get nagged again…*sigh*….
It was really a bad…bad…knitting experience…
(To be continued…)
