You’re so kind, thank you sooo much! VeryPink & Ravelry seem like exactly the kind of “tried and true” resources I was hoping to find! Honestly there’s so much out there it’s a bit overwhelming, so I appreciate it! And your overall advice is very reassuring, too, I was so intimidated by the purl stitch for a while, I feel like I’ve unlocked a whole new world now! Haha.

Aw, thanks so much! <3!

Wow, nice! I love this color! About how long would you guesstimate it took you to get this far? Personally I think a button with a bit of sparkle/flair would look super cute! Like maybe silver/gold, a pearlized or metallic teal to match the yarn, or black with glitter! The flower button idea is super fun, too, especially if you could find ones that are shaped like flowers! Haha. Congrats on all your progress! :)

McDonald’s fruit & yogurt parfait. For $1. I loved those things. Yes, I can just get yogurt, granola, & fruit and make my own, but they’re not the same. Haha.

You answered what I was confused about in your post. I just had to re-read/let it marinate. I’m on piefed.social now, thanks again for your help! :)
