first post, first project

I'm really happy to join you all on this knit along (my first one!).

Modle

My first project is the crisp rectangle tunic top, with a mustard, kind of "rough" wool, I really don't think this is the perfect wool for this, as it is irregular and pretty thick, but I want to give it a try nonetheless (i loooove this wool).

I've only just begun, and already thought about quitting, having some problems with the short rows, just like Julia Emily explains it here. Fortunately, she found a solution to this problem, and i can't thank her enough for explaining it!

1st... Attempt1 Attempt2 ... 2nd...
...and third!
Attempt3

So, I'm on my third attempt to achieve these blasted unexpected short rows, but i think i'm finally on the right track!

Nota: I'm not completely sure about my english, i really don't know if it's completely understandable, or completely confusing ! so don't hesitate to tell me if there's a mistake, or something you don't get in my text, i'd love to correct it and have the opportunity to improve my english
