Welcome to the dark side of making things.
These size 1 needles are so tiny. And what do I do with this stupid cable? And why does my work have a big bare string of yarn in it?
I’ve watched 16 YouTube videos called “Getting Started with Magic Loop!” and it’s 11 pm and I was already emotionally raw because we watched the last episode of The Mandalorian tonight, and why did I ever think I could knit socks?
Stop. Reset. Go to bed. Everything will look better in the morning.
