I like the progress record knitted into it. Careful to sloppy to "I got this!" I used to get tighter and tighter. I couldn't keep the tension right and the tighter it got the more I forced it tighter in response. My teacher would end up doing a couple of rows up loosen it off for me. 😅

I struggle with tension with crochet. It takes me several tries and much frogging before I find my balance. I am used to the tension being dictated by the needles in knitting! :)

I like the Arne & Carlos approach to knitting tension - find your natural tension, then change the needle sizes (and I guess, in some cases, the yarn) to get the tension you want/need.
