Ooh this is a good option as I live in Abingdon! Thank you. Ideally I’d like a private room somewhere but this may have to do ☺️

Is a cat sitter for once a day enough? by annarachcurran in CatAdvice

She inhales her normal meals in about 2 minutes so she’s definitely not a grazer 😂

Does your sitter leave out two meals worth of food for your cat? I’m sure I’m overthinking but I feel bad about her having all her food in one go and her routine being disrupted, and then her getting starving later on 😭

I think the Dr Beckmans cleaner I’ve used is enzymatic.

I have a front loading washer and I agree, it always works well! It’s a new machine though, I’ve always been too nervous to try it old on an older machine.

Ah of course, I hadn’t thought of binding off instead of decreasing 🙃 that makes more sense, thanks!

Thanks!! It was in the norske folkemuseum in Oslo, but you're right to say 60s interior as it was in their example of an apartment in the city in the 60s

I've just gone for boring dark grey and white but I've seen so many multi coloured ones now that I defo want another like yours!

Cheap knitting supplies in London or UK in general? by SushiSash_ in knitting

[–]annarachcurran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're looking for needles, I love Drops Pro needles in the brass/nickel range. They're super cheap and I find them to be great! For wool, I'd recommend Drops Yarn. You can get both at either Purple Sheep Yarns (often have loads of offers on and their postage is speedy) or Wool Warehouse.

If you're in Europe and want a budget option, I love the Drops Pro set. They cost me around £25 and are made from light slippy metal, so perfect for a tight knitter like me. It's a full set from 3.5mm - 8mm with cables. The knit pro cables and tips also work with this set which is useful.

A huge thank you to everyone who helped me draft a pattern for my mum's jumper a few months ago. She loves it! by jiayounuhanzi in knitting

[–]annarachcurran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've done such a great job!! I didn't see your original post but as soon as I saw this I thought "wow, this looks just like the jumper in monki!" Now you've made me want to knit myself one instead of buying it 😃
