I started and failed three new #knitting projects last night.
Pattern writers, I'm begging you to include both written and charted instructions.
My neurodivergent brain cannot work from charts, at least not in the beginning of a project. I have ADHD, which means my ability to remember what a symbol means on the wrong side vs the right side is nonexistent and I doubt myself the entire time I'm knitting. It's more stress than a hobby should be.
