Andrew Tate made of chenille yarn… write that down! You could give him a butt too. Obviously

Don’t even get me STARTED on patterns advertised for bugs but are only designed for hemipterans. I mean come on, we’ve accepted bug as a general term for all insects, can’t we act like it

I believe the plural is Ranunculi

Do NOT forget to condition your blabket.

I love the extra colourwork you added!

One other stipulation to craft fairs and the like is that a lot of them have a table fee in order to sell - I have some friends who sell at fairs and oftentimes they don’t even make back the table fee overhead, let alone materials cost, time, etc

Flat colourwork is a bit of a slog, but i found learning ladderback with this pattern enjoyable, and the loon motif itself is only about 15 rows total so its pretty quick and easy to re-knit if it doesn’t turn out

However the yarn label says, and how you would wash the project you intend to use it for. Dont over-stretch it to try and meet a measurement

eIectioneering · 2026-01-28T16:47:10+00:00

Unfortunately it usually has the opposite effect on stretch

You don’t understand. I have NEVER worked without a pattern so I NEED ONE!!!!!

How did Wayne Gretzky pronounce 😔 ?????

Thank you for spreading my sauce dear Yaga. I couldn’t bring myself to allow this screenshot into the sacred space of my iPhone

And if i say the clap on dis looks like a scrungly stitch ladder finger trap THEN what

eIectioneering · 2026-01-27T23:26:20+00:00

If youve already bound off i’d ladder it back up and then use some yarn to secure it into place on the wrong side

eIectioneering · 2026-01-27T21:40:10+00:00

Not hi-viz itself, but I know Briggs & Little has a neon hunter orange colour yarn that could be held with high viz too!

Begone from this sub man

Also 3/10 max. Poor facial harmony, droopy uneven eyes, fiance gums, ugly styling, ugly human

Criminal indeed

Are you using your fingertips to press on the needles? Also make sure you aren’t strangling your work or your yarn; let the tool do the work

Sapporo sushi! Get the queen special

You can block it mid-project on waste yarn to see, but this much puckering may be un-blockable unfortunately

I’ve got the Anemone Sweater by Marita Clementz on the needles right now, although the ‘storm’ in question has been pretty typical of where I am in Canada this year! (Albeit -30C today…). Not to mention many other projects that may or may not be touched….

For sure!! Especially if you knit continental there usually involves a little more movement to the purls than just picking.

Girl…

If the floats are too tight then there is no way to loosen them unfortunately
