I really hate the maths element of knitting. I consider myself to be pretty quick of thought generally but not with maths, I just can't keep my mind focussed on it, I am halfway through an equation and I forget what it is I am getting at, what was that number again and how the hell does it relate to what I need to know? Maths sucks and is not vastly improved by 5hrs of sleep witht he light on. Doh!

I have a jumper and I get more stitches to the inch than I should, maths can save me, if only I can work out what the implications are, but I am not good enough at knitting to facilitate the maths and not good enough at the maths to facilitate the knitting.

Is it time for bed yet?
