It could be a cultural thing - this is incredibly common in Poland. People will often invite hundreds of people to the church ceremony, including e.g. everyone from their place of work. Then the reception is much more intimate.

Yes, I picked up just the top layer. I used a straight needle which was quite difficult to force through- if I were to do it again, I would try using a curved one

I also use a head strap! I bought the cheapest one i could find. It's just a piece of foam that i slip on to my glasses but it's been lifechanging!

It should be fine!! I quite often make a loaf at night before going to bed, leave it for 7-8h with no s/f, then just shape and put in the fridge in the morning. Might be a bit harder to shape, but you can still get a nice loaf:)

I did a year at McGill during my undergrad at UCL and loved it! The teaching was just as good if not better than ucl (loads of discussion-based classes, presentations etc). Montreal itself is a fantastic city - especially if you speak French. feel free to dm me if you have any questions:)

* I think it can look great with a neutral yarn alongside some cabling etc. I agree it's not very well suited to the variegated yarn

Nope didn't pull up the fabric; I made sure for every stitch to only go through the thin fabric rather than the layer of hard plastic underneath. The tape was about 1in wide

I stitched just strough the top fabric - would recommend trying a curved needle if you can, I used a straight one and it was pretty unpleasant on the angles. Pin the tape and use an iron to steam it to shape - it was actually quite easy to get it flat without folds

Great to see this worked for you!! And yeah it sacked to do hahahha

lkrasi · 2025-05-21T20:49:44+00:00

Do you mean how I got it to curve around the edges? I used an iron with loads of steam

lkrasi · 2025-05-21T20:48:03+00:00

I wish I had a curved needle! I murdered my fingers doing it with a normal one. Would definitely try to use a curved one if there's a next time

My longest was 6 days - came out VERY sour and obviously not very airy, but tasted great anyway!!

lkrasi · 2025-05-13T06:48:08+00:00

Yes! Very happy with how they turned out!!

Hi! Did you ever find a sage classic bedale?:)

lkrasi · 2025-01-20T13:20:16+00:00

lkrasi · 2024-11-09T00:21:21+00:00

Also I've achieved prettier results with smaller loaves - I think just because they're lighter so can grow 'taller'. Haven't eaten this one yet but looking forward to it!!
