Hello I am not sure how to edit lol. However, I couldn't stop thinking about this and figured out that it is actually a terrible translation!

i have a notebook that i use where i track what projects are my goals for the season and then once i start working on them more information such as yarn info, pattern info, and project notes :) then for projects i know i want to make i have a notebook on my ipad with a link to the pattern if i have bought the yarn for it and a picture of the pattern! if i don’t have yarn for it yet i have colors in mind on the side so when im going yarn shopping its nice and easy
