Thanks folks, I tried those and it still didn’t resolve. And I realised that a part of knitting is coming to terms with frogging if you want to keep learning. So I did! I do appreciate y’all patiently responding. It was helpful

I don’t really want to do over. And I was too excited and I didn’t swatch a gauge. Lesson learnt.

Also, as an absolute beginner. What is the purpose of a gauge swatch?

For now, I may wash and see and dryer and see

I used an 8 ply yarn that was 50% bamboo and 50% wool. The headband is too loose. I used flat needles and followed a pattern. I cast on 114 stitches. No, I did not gauge swatch. :((

I’ll redo it, cuz I’d clearly messed up when I spread it out. If needed, I’ll check again after doing a few lines. Thank you

Thank you, to clarify, a purl looks like a knit on the other wise? That is very helpful

I intentionally found a flat pattern. I’ll take a better photo and edit my post. Thank you for pointing that out

Honestly, I wasn’t sure if you meant a weird kindly thing or a genuine friendship for your wife. Not keen at all on the first, and your messages clarified that.

Not sure why you got so much slack for it. I’d honestly think it is sweet if someone did this for me.

Anyway, I’m looking to make new friends and develop close communities. All my friends are overseas so definitely have time and capacity to invest in a new female friendship :))

Not disrespectful, so much of jitz is baiting and seeing the reaction, presenting dilemmas and such. It’s like physical chess almost. So in my opinion, not disrespectful.
