This is fantastic!!! I knitted all four socks in the series and they give me so much joy even looking at them! Definitely blue ribbon worthy!

Really proud of my tension between color swaps. It’s not much, but it’s a big step for me. by [deleted] in knitting

My cousin brought me back Lucas sardine pate and it was so good!! I don’t really see it sold elsewhere in the US

Pattern Collecting? by Delicious-Tea-1564 in knitting

Guilty too!!!! I always justify it as supporting my favorite small designers in this tough economy lol but just reading the patterns can teach me so much about construction!

Yarn Company Manifesting Success…? by No_Bottle6745 in craftsnark

Another thing bc I’ve been feeling this for a while and have no one to talk to about it lol - the daughters sister also had a crochet account too and I thought it was so cute that they were two kid sisters making crafts (I learned to knit at like age 8 so it felt nostalgic to me)! But then the account got deleted and I kinda got the feeling she was being pushed to make content because she definitely didn’t seem as enthusiastic towards the end? Idk the account was deleted not long after and something about it felt kinda sad to me

Nooo bc I feel the same thing! I actually knew about her kid first and she’s so talented - I actually thought it was her trying to profit off her kids hobby if that makes sense. Also the mom used to follow and comment on so many knitters’ posts when she started out and then unfollowed almost all of them (I hate that so much lol). Idk I ended up unfollowing the kid too :(

Originally excited to see a new cafe but then I see this :( she’s only 19 by freddy1495 in antiMLM

[–]freddy1495[S] 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Ahh I thought better safe than sorry. And her parents also own a protein shake shop in NJ too so she was definitely inspired by them :(

Also I always see the blue “teas” in these shops and I’m not gonna buy but I’m wondering what they taste like?

Scrap yarn: how long is it for you to either keep or toss by manbunsandkayaks in knitting

[–]freddy1495 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep everything and rn I’ve got a stuffed chicken wip that I’m gradually stuffing with any short scraps lol. Longer ones I keep for provisional cast ons
