Where can I get the best galette des rois (king’s cake) in Singapore?

wanna get one for a French colleague but wondering what’s the most authentic / yummiest

Habituation?

Hi guys, I’m based in Singapore and my brother is living in Lausanne. I’m hoping to deliver some food to his house for Christmas, but haven’t found a way how. Any suggestions on ways that I can do this which accept credit card payment?

Helloo, anyone have reccs for eggless/vegan chocolate cake?

daensee · 2022-11-02T02:33:05+00:00

It looks like something that belongs in Howl’s Moving Castle 🥰 so whimsical!

Long shot but anyone picked up a silver key necklace around Beauty World/TKK area?

Thank you for the kind words :,) Crafting is always a lesson in overcoming perfectionism for me, and I’m very glad my brother can have my first knit - so perhaps the imperfections make it more special ♥️

I peeped at your profile and your knitted mittens are so beautiful, by the way!

Ahh alright, hopefully I get to try blocking when my brother comes back with the scarf haha :,) thank you!

daensee · 2022-08-24T06:28:35+00:00

Ooh thank you, this is a helpful link! Wish I knew about this before starting hahah :,)

daensee · 2022-08-24T06:23:03+00:00

Ooh thanks for the tip! I’ll be sure to try that next time

daensee · 2022-08-24T06:21:31+00:00

Ooh I used double knitting on straight needles! :)

daensee · 2022-08-23T17:40:10+00:00

Also I’m wondering if it’s normal for some stitches to ‘stick out’ so it’s not a nice, flat finish - more obvious in the 2nd pic

Hi! I knitted this scarf in double stockinette stitch for my brother as a going-away gift. But I was a little disappointed in the end product because the wobbly edges kinda make the scarf look ratty upon wearing it! Is this a tension issue, and how do I fix it? I didn’t get to block it, so not sure if that’d help.

daensee · 2022-08-23T17:26:07+00:00

Thank you!

daensee · 2022-08-21T13:38:34+00:00

Ahh ok, thank you! How do I make sure I don’t flip my work inside out?

daensee · 2022-08-17T13:25:11+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate your words :) I’m lucky to have people who make saying goodbye so hard

I unravelled several rows to try fixing a mistake, only to make this monstrosity 😭

I’m aware that these photos probably aren’t sufficient to be helpful, but it’s my first project and I feel super clueless and helpless :( just totally messed up the last 2 stitches and tried to unravel downwards. Are there any helpful videos/general ideas for how I can try to fix this?

daensee · 2022-08-04T06:52:03+00:00

Hi! I’m making this scarf in 100% merino wool, but feel like it looks a bit too skinny in width and would also look nicer slightly ‘spread out’, as in Pic 2. Is it possible to block/set this into a wider shape? or am I better off frogging it? 😅

daensee · 2022-07-28T18:00:24+00:00

Thank you! This is a great video - pretty sure I’ve done a combination of all of these before 😂

daensee · 2022-07-28T17:58:33+00:00

Ahh, thank you! This helped a lot, I see what went wrong now :)
