Just started knitting

I wanted to start with something practical, so I bought Daiso's dishcloth yarn (it's only 1000 won, super cheap). I tried making a net-patterned square dishcloth, and wow. How is the basic dishcloth pattern, the one that looks like a circle or a flower, considered for absolute beginners? It's so difficult.???? No, I just can't do it. What on earth are 'han-gil-tteu-gi' (long double crochet) and 'ppae-tteu-gi' (slip stitch)...?? I'm watching YouTube tutorials one by one, pausing frequently, and they make it look so easy, like they're pros. "Okay~ put the yarn in here~~ Ta-da, this is a long double crochet~^^ Easy, right?" they say. It's hard...

I saw a video saying that if it's just one layer, the dishcloth is too thin and doesn't clean well.. I can only do one stitch at a time right now.. The path to knitting is long indeed.

Wow, it's amazing that you knit after work! The pros in the videos are all so fast. It's natural to find it difficult at first, so don't get too discouraged!

They say knitting is good for zoning out, but seeing what you've written, your brain looks like it's about to explode from overload!

I tried it before as prenatal education but felt like my personality got worse, so I gave up 🤣

A lot of people start with dish scrubbies, but the yarn for them is actually quite fluffy, making it hard to see the stitches. It's a bit difficult for absolute beginners lol. It's better to practice with regular cotton yarn first lol

It's easy to lose your temper. Don't do it!
