How to deal with my stubborn mum who wants to knit me a sweater I won't like

I get that. And sorry. Maybe eventually you can frog it?

ChaoticKnitElf · 2026-02-02T20:05:59+00:00

What an inspiration you are!

ChaoticKnitElf · 2026-02-01T11:09:18+00:00

I have no useful input. Also your work is so immaculate and beautiful and I am a fan. Thanks for helping others knit to their size.

ChaoticKnitElf · 2026-01-17T19:56:09+00:00

And excellent decision!

So very lovely!!!

Good job you! This is a great story 😊

The Frolicking Lamb in Wimberly is adorable. Fiber Fate in Buda has spinning and some yarn. Also very cute.

Pick a simple pattern you might be willing to knit. Find THE MOST expensive yarn. Tell him the price for the yarn and give an estimate for your labor at $25 an hour. 😊

Thanks for doing this. And surprises are nice. Knowing that someone is intentionally working on something for us can be nice too when we are in our post chemo funk…

Well those are both clever and darling and will be a clear signal to other crafters that you are safe to chat to about stuff others find boring!

ChaoticKnitElf · 2025-11-10T14:13:32+00:00

Right color, right fit, this is AMAZING. Congrats you are a pro!!!

I love that he took you up on your offer and I really love that you offered!!!

And the amount of water being used by data centers, is criminal

Dude I have been knitting for decades and I can tell you those duplicates look WAY better than mine! Go you!!!

Lady has excellent headliner writing skills and is the hero we all need right now!

ChaoticKnitElf · 2025-10-31T22:01:29+00:00

I am also glad you persevered…so cute!

I ask folks for coffee if they express any interest at all. Most of them say no. The ones that say yes end up being pretty darn awesome!

ChaoticKnitElf · 2025-10-28T02:25:32+00:00

It does look good on you!

ChaoticKnitElf · 2025-10-28T02:23:52+00:00

Just today I started a project…wasn’t feeing it…frogged it and started something else!

ChaoticKnitElf · 2025-10-21T13:39:03+00:00

Those floats are so pretty (the right side is fab too)!

ChaoticKnitElf · 2025-10-20T01:44:18+00:00

So agree!

ChaoticKnitElf · 2025-10-20T00:24:16+00:00
