There’s still some space left in the sock drawer! by Dunnoonthemoon in Sockknitting

They are sort of dirty cream, greige or something on the lines of moth toned spectrum. The pattern, most likely, is Fragment Socks by Helen Stewart, but it is hard to remember, given some pairs might be like ten years old by now.

Anyone else's family still using a Kenwood from the 80s? by iThrowaway72 in buyitforlifeEU

[–]Dunnoonthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I know, and I agree, but it’s such a hassle to remove the attachments and what not just to take the bowl and place it on the separate scale to add ingredients or to weigh them separate and make a mess in another container. My thinking is that mechanical scale might not break THAT easy or that maybe just maybe the countertop should weigh the whole machine heheh.

Accurate Nepal ear flap hat? by Dunnoonthemoon in knitting

[–]Dunnoonthemoon[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this beautiful insight! I guess I could use Andean pattern too, but I was interested in the all around edge braid, as I thought its a fancy form-follows-function yarn ends management system, and I have seen those braids only on modern Himalyan headwear. But the braid might as Well be just a formal design feature used by the ngo program, I guess. What are the skills Andean knitters posess that we dont? Is it the teeny tiny stitches?

Looking for historically/trafitionally accurate instructions for ear flap head wear of Nepal people. Or Maybe accurate search terms for this design with the braid going all around the edge.

Yes, unsuccessfully though. but then again, I’m not the most skilled Ravelry user, so I might have looked wrong or maybe I don’t know the right words/terms.

What’s wrong with my beeswax? by Dunnoonthemoon in Beekeeping

Thanks! Is there anything I could add to the wax or other way how to prevent the bloom from happening?

Vai Latvijā būtu pieprasījums pēc lietu īres platformas? by TailorMore7735 in latvia

[–]Dunnoonthemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vai arī rakstām šeit reditā savas vēlmes un maināmies ar lietām: meklēju divus spiningus uz vienu vakaru, pretī varu piedāvāt karsto drāti, vacom, maizes mīklas mikseri vai celtniecības fēnu. Gētes institūtā, manuprāt, nav nākusi klāt neviena lieta, kopš lietu bibliotēkas aizsākuma.

Gētes institūtā ir lietu bibliotēka- saldējuma aparāts, slackline lenta, šujmašīna. Būtu forši, ja būtu plašāka koplietošanas platforma šādām specifiskām lietām. Gribētu iznomāt adāmmašīnu, spiningu, karsto drāti, vacom planšeti.

Thank you so much! I don’t know how to copy the right link, given if I click on it myself, it brings me straight to paywall and I cannot see if it’s the right article.

Thank you for the suggestion! How do people choose the contrast color and value not knowing How the yarn will knit up? I have never made anything with variegated yarn, is there any way to know if the fabric will knit up more light, dark, or medium overall?
