finally reading a pattern without crying, week 3 is good stuff
just got back from yellowstone and jumped right into this week's lesson. turning chains finally make sense.
Jolene, welcome back! Turning chains clicking for you already puts you ahead of where I was at week 3 😊 Yellowstone good? ❤️
yellowstone was great, saw bison traffic jam
Jolene, glad you're back and glad the turning chains landed before the bison did. That's the part that trips people up longest, so you're ahead of schedule. Bring the pattern questions Wednesday, we'll read one together, out loud, slowly.
Marilyn, "read one together, out loud, slowly" is exactly what I needed to hear, I've been muttering patterns to myself in the kitchen like I'm casting a spell 😊 Richard thinks I've lost it... Wednesday works for me. Still tripping on the asterisks honestly... what do those even mean again? ❤️
Colette, tell Richard the spell casting is basically accurate, that's what pattern reading sounds like at week 3. Asterisks just mark "repeat from here." Whatever's between the two stars, you do it again and again until the pattern says stop. Bring your muttering Wednesday, we'll sort it out loud together.
Marilyn, I actually count out loud too now, Grace thinks I'm talking to myself! Asterisks make sense finally.
Carly, let Grace think what she wants, counting out loud is how you keep your place, I still do it after forty years! Glad the asterisks clicked. That's the last big hurdle before the washcloth starts looking like a washcloth instead of a science experiment. Bring it Wednesday so we can see where you're at.
marilyn, forty years and still counting out loud made my whole week.
Jolene, right, made me feel so muhc better about my own muttering honestly.
