And on to the next mystery (for you and for me). I like to start and evolve as it goes along. This will most likely become a child's jumper with random textures and 3 colours. Using BWM Luxury 10ply.

Thank you! I tend to lose interest quickly and need results so I stick to #knitting children's items.

I believe others can see the tree rating which I choose to leave public. And this flaw skews that negatively and may make others lack trust in my research and tree generally. I have already uploaded a photo.

Counting living relatives in the analysis is not appropriate. They should be known and able to confirm details. It skews the error % of any similar tree. Whereas no sources for more distant relatives is a problem and should be flagged. Ancestry needs to exclude the 'living' for tree accuracy.

Yes, as a baby born in 2024 there are no sources to attach unless his parents send me a copy of his birth certificate. But surely the system should understand that the living son of my living son is not likely to be an 'error' through lack of proof! So perhaps their criteria needs a bit if tweaking.

My #genealogy rant for the day... #Ancestry is flagging(downgrading tree accuracy) that my 9 month old grandson is a potential error in my tree. Reason no sources...
OK maybe the fact he is marked as living, and is my grandson currently wearing my handknits is a fact? Sort this idiocy!

I have been quietly busy lately. I decided to go back to making a blanket with my crochet flowers. So I am now almost there with a knitted vest to match the lilac skirt :)

As usual all my #crochet projects start with fiddling to keep my hands occupied. But now I can see a bed throw made of lots of multicoloured flowers....
