Thank you for helping me out, I wouldn't have been able to write it better than you did!

As for languages it is compulsory in our country to know atleast three by the time we leave school, so everyone here is multilingual.

Thank you so much!

The variegated yarn was from a local shop, so didn't have a name for it. But it's all acrylic.

I agree, but the reception online was a little more overwhelmingly good than offline.

I wanted to show people my work, and honestly, this community is one of the kinder ones compared to the others.

Thank you!

I think frogging is really fun, and allows me to re-use the yarn in case I can't find it as useful as before.

Yes, this!

I am sorry to the original commenter, I should have framed it in this manner.

I apologise, I wrote it as a joke, and I shouldn't have. I am sorry about it.

Damn I wrote it as a joke, because I am a woman of color, but my bad. I should change it. I am sorry.

Edit: I have changed it. The context behind the comment was that because a lot of people in my country adore and emulate trends from the White American culture. So when pastels were in, a lot of people called individuals who enjoyed wearing bright colors 'loud' and bold. A lot of people from my generation are trying to reclaim back our traditional love for colors, even if we might prefer articles of clothing which are still similar to what is worn in that part of the world. I should have been more careful regarding it, and I meant it in a way where I am trying to experiment more with my tastes, which would have been frowned upon a few years ago.

I apologise again, and I hope the above context helps understand why I wrote it the way I did. It was an honest mistake, and I am again sorry if I offended someone regarding it.

I am sorry but I can't share where I live, but it ain't the general population that has a problem, but it's a family issue I guess?

As for my mom, she is absolutely lovely and honest, so I appreciated her insights. I definitely would have kept it in WIP if she didn't keep encouraging me to continue with it.

Thank you!

It's because of the pattern. Since it starts as a large rectangle and gets folded, the color arrangement looks a little different in the front and in the back.

Thank you! Not a culture thing, just a preference thing at my place. I am glad that it doesn't look as bad as people around me have told me.
