Yesterday I tried and made a lot of mistakes. First was trying to accomplish a slip knot, which by the book was impossible. I found another way and it works much better, the X method on my hands. Then struggling to make a chain stitch, but I got better slowly. Then I tried several lines of single crochet and it came out floppy and anemic. Turns out I was doing it completely wrong. So I ripped up everything and this morning tried it again. I finally figured out what was wrong, I was only picking up half of the loops that I needed so there was no depth to the work.

In a few hours I ended up here. Looks like it’s going to be a scarf for Scott. There’s some missed stitches at the base, but overall it’s not bad for a day 2 attempt.
