| | Knitting. like math. and any other learned procedure that has a given end result, have an interesting commonality.
my brother, one of the smarter men I know, said to me, "I don't understand math, I can do math, but I don't understand it. I may even get it, with out understanding it"
so is my current relationship with knitting. so long as I follow the specific procedure I will end at the given result.
There is nothing wrong with this. nor is there anything wrong with kelton not understanding math.
I beileve many doctors, now have learned how to be doctors. they get the body, without understanding it.
There is a group of knitters who have take a picture of a garden and have knitted a large scale version by simply looking and the shapes and colors. they need no pattern, to instructional, they understand knitting.
some mathematicians can not put into words how they solved the our worlds largest equations, they simply do it, they understand it.
i wonder how many other things we have been doing with out understanding them.
