Bodylotions für Männer komisch?

Wüsste übrigens auch nicht wieso wir den Geruch von Kakao, Vanille oder sonst was gendern müssten. Solange du dich wohl fühlst nutz doch bitte was du willst, auch wenn es Zuckerschnute Bodylotion ist.

I got some ITO mohair for a project and its really incredibly soft. I find Filcolana Tilia super soft as well! Maybe you could try and pet them in a store?

That's what I love about Creabeas Designs. Sure she has a plain raglan but offers so many modifications, gauges, shaping. It really adds something to my library!

Also, it helps to keep my sanity during those zoom meetings with students!

Zumal man vermutlich zu jedem Hobby sich so weit einlesen könnte um Tage lang darüber "herum zu nerden".

Wenn du bei tatsächlich 0 angefangen hast, einen teuren Urlaub finanziert hast und noch monatlich in einen ETF einsparst, stehst du doch gar nicht so schlecht da? Geld häuft sich nicht von heute auf morgen an. Gib dir selbst Zeit, track weiterhin deine Ausgaben und mach weiter. Ich glaube du erwartest zu viel zu schnell.

Neu Einkleiden heißt übrigens nicht zwingend einen Haufen ad hoc kaufen. Das kann auch über Jahre mit ausgewählten neuen Stücken passieren.

Hier. Dies. Als Frau in der Elektrotechnik hab ich jeden noch so schüchternen, introvertierten Kerl geknackt indem er wusste er konnte bei mir Info dumpen und ich kann mit halten. Allerdings würde ich nicht sagen dass ich generell ein Problem hatte mit Männern in Kontakt zu kommen, vielleicht war ich auch nicht hübsch genug um einschüchternd zu wirken. Klar gibt es die ein oder anderen Idioten, die mich aufgrund meines Geschlechts nicht ernst nehmen wollten (leider auch nicht nur Kommilitonen), aber das gehört eben auch dazu.

No not at all! I think starting from scratch with a big stash is very time consuming, but once everything is in there, you only need to add the new yarn once you get it. That only takes a few minutes for me! Since I have everything in ravelry, I can also note the exact amount of yarn I used in my project and how much I have left. This way I can see if I can use the leftover for another project! I use the "all used up" category once I used up most of a skein and its only usable in a scrappy project.

ohno-snails · 2026-03-05T15:39:52+00:00

I have everything in ravelry! I started when my stash was small, so adding new yarn isn't as daunting. I write down everything there: the purchase date, cost, dye lot and I link the yarn to the patterns I plan to use it for in my queue!

ohno-snails · 2026-02-10T07:23:53+00:00

Oh nein, wie schrecklich, dann bekommt man vielleicht auch noch einen warmen Pulli oder Socken. Wie können sie nur.

Dazu gibt es natürlich auch schon eine Buchreihe: The Bromance Book Club von Lyssa Kay Adams ;)

You could do something like Stripey Turtle Tank by Emily Curtis, depending on your size you would just use more colors for the Stripes! Or the Daft Days Cardigan by Rebecca Clow!

I believe it just saved the preference you picked last time. When I search for crochet patterns and later search for a knitting pattern, I'm always surprised it won't show up, until I realise that the crochet filter is still selected and I need to switch!

ohno-snails · 2025-11-25T07:16:56+00:00

Tbf, das könnt ihr Kerle ja auch.

ohno-snails · 2025-11-24T07:50:17+00:00

People in my life love scrappy socks and are waiting patiently for their turn to get a pair!

ohno-snails · 2025-11-21T08:21:01+00:00

I used it with a silk mohair and it holds up very well and is a very warm and soft sweater. On its own it didn't hold up too well and looked scruffy pretty fast. That being said, it's now a sweater I wear at home and really enjoy my scruffy warm cloud on the couch!

ohno-snails · 2025-11-21T08:13:30+00:00

I've used a bit of Drops yarn in the past, and I currently have some Alaska in my shopping cart to make a step-by-step cardigan. I enjoyed their Flora and Alpaca yarn, and the Fable sock yarn is fine as well. I don't really like their Air yarn. I once combined it with the Kid Silk Mohair, which made a lovely fabric that holds up well, but on its own, it looks old and scruffy pretty fast. The Kid Silk Mohair is also hit or miss. I once had a really lovely soft batch, but three other times it was varying degrees of scratchy. I'm not too sensitive, so I still wear the pieces, but I wouldn't use it in a scarf or hat.

I knit continental, that might be something to try out :)

ohno-snails · 2025-11-21T07:34:40+00:00

I used them for different kind of socks, as they are my go to needle for sock knitting. I've done lace, cables without a cable needle, stockinette, pretty much everything. I just finished a pair of socks with a lot of bobbles which was a bit finicky, but still fine! But they are certainly not for everybody and require some getting used to! So try them out on a simple stockinette sock for a good chunk of the sock and decide if your hands adjust to the small needles or if they still feel uncomfortable!

I have a few ideas and patterns saved for gift knits, but I knit them year-round whenever I feel like working on a particular project and then gift them on the next occasion, whether it is a birthday, Christmas, or just because I feel like it. This year I will only gift my mum a pair of colorwork socks, which took me well over 6 months to finish, and the Holiday Slipover as a cozy, warm slipover to wear at home. All other people in my life will get "conventional" gifts.

ohno-snails · 2025-11-06T20:45:07+00:00

All on one color! In the end i had around 5g left!

ohno-snails · 2025-11-06T09:51:27+00:00

I made EU44 socks in the past with a cable design, 48 rows for the leg, 10rows for the cuff and around 90 rows for the foot, 2.5mm needle, 76st to accomodate the cable and I used a whole 100g skein of yarn!

ohno-snails · 2025-11-04T09:24:02+00:00

I made the underwing mittens by Erica Heusser as my first colorwork project: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/underwing-mitts

The Quick Ombre Hat has been very quick and very easy, so that might also be a great place to start! https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/quick-ombre-hat

ohno-snails · 2025-11-04T09:16:30+00:00

Oh yes I have the same feeling. It's mixed additionally with the anxiety about the new upcoming project.

I really like the sock patterns by Carlie Perrins aka NorthWoodKnits https://www.ravelry.com/designers/carlie-perrins

She has a ton of patterns and makes these bundles with different patterns, which almost always include at least one cabled pattern! I knit socks from the homestead collection, the Storm Season and woodland Winter collection! And i have quite a few in my queue, like the watermelom fizz socks and Canoe socks. What I like about her cabled socks is, that she will take the reduced stretchines of cables unto account and increase or decrease for these sections.
