#at least i can have variations. tbh the pattern itself has variations (it’s a colourwork pattern and there’s two different design options)

Gotta love seeing a cute knitting pattern that is free for Valentine’s day only, being excited at the prospect of saving money, and then immediately spending almost £30 on materials to make the damn thing 🤦🏻‍♀️
#it was a combination of 2 things: 1) i couldn’t decide on a colour scheme & couldn’t decide whether i should trust the yarn colours#in the photo; so i decided to buy a few different options#like i trust this navy blue but is the white going to be too stark? should i go with beige? but is the beige too dark?#will the duck egg blue clash with everything else? especially the beige#so i ended up buying the white the beige the navy the duck egg And also purple#at least i can have variations. tbh the pattern itself has variations (it’s a colourwork pattern and there’s two different design options)#so it’ll be easy to tell them apart if one is beige and purple and the other is white and duck egg#or some other combination idk#that was when i noticed the second thing which was the free delivery promotion#yes i got swindled#i don’t think i have double pointed needles in the size i need for this specific pattern so i bought some just in case magic loop confounds#me. and then i was £5 off the free delivery promotion so i was like ‘fuck it’ and ordered a random sock yarn that was on sale#i figure at some point i need to get over my hatred of making socks. also my mom will stop asking me to make them if i make her one pair#i mean she hasn’t actually Asked but she goes on and on about the socks my godmother makes and how good they are and then looks at me like 🥺#and i’m like oh my GOD. you saw me have a breakdown trying to make those slipper socks. can you chill#anyway tl;dr i have once again spent money for no reason. lol#personal
