i love the color yarn you chose and the pattern!

Ha. And you can type with them too ! :)

I figured out why the pattern ended up differently then it was supposed to. I was doing my yarn overs wrong.

You weren't doing the yarn overs "wrong" just differently. They're great. Don't trash yourself!!

Love
