The pattern in detail diagram

Too new a thing to a sunshine beach girl to adjust herself and learn to wrap and keep warm of herself and her baby in a cooler climate, without HUMAN face to face help.

Too much to learn within a short time for a psychiatric outpatient :(

Learnt to rib the stitiches from my fav beautiful and generous online tutor Ms Staci from verypink.com

-Started somewhat 200-220sts with long tail cast on
-Rib 20x2, by luck. Many wrong counting hidden in the bottom red color
-3.5” per color, estimating length from bottomN to neck is 22” for six colors
-At 12-13” started to shape armholes for 8” n 3.5” for last color purple, now stuck for neckline?! Do I have the strength to go on searching, fixing, learning, reading, understanding English, knitting ….beside some other battles outside the knitting world!? Hood or no hood? Tell mo there is no hood exist in this world so mommy can cast off and rest…..
