Long term project

I think I started knitting this Slytherin scarf in my 3rd year in University. Not quite 20 years ago but I guess near enough, LOL. I’m not a knitting fanatic. I have 0 skills. I don’t know how to end the knit. If I drop a stitch, I have no idea how to save it. I can’t just look at the knit and know “ah! It’s a xxxx stitch!”. I think I’m doing the stockinette stitch with this one and if I don’t complete a row, I will not know what my next stitch should be just by looking at my progress.
I can only memorise the hand movement and then just go along and mentally crossing my fingers hoping that I didn’t miss a stitch, drop a stitch, or knit a wrong stitch. I am hopeless when it comes to knitting, LOL!
I don’t have enough wool to make it nice and long. Probably can only make it “just” long enough to go around my neck. Or I have to go look for wool that’s near enough the colours! I’ll see what I finally decide on later. I may have to more wool for the end tassels that I think might make it look nice. I have to ask my mom how to do the last row. I also have to ask my mom how to end the end-lines when I changed color (you can still see them hanging)
I’ll try to finish it this year. Or else, it might take another 5 years to completely finish this, LOL!
