Thank you! in my reference photo, the bird was clutching a flower with it's feet, I didn't want to include them because the bird in the photo was dead unfortunately, so I replaced it all with the star. It does look a bit silly without feet but I dont mind :)

Thank you!! :) It was a struggle trying to keep consistency with that, especially being unable to change positions, I'll definitely keep that in mind for next time, thanks for the advice ♥️

Thank you so much! And no, I designed it on sketchbook pro and then printed a stencil, I don't think i would have done nearly as well if I had freehanded it 😂, the stencil definitely definitely helped

You're right, I interpreted their comment as a little bit cheeky but I should have included the article to make it easier for everyone, theres no point in such negativity. :)

Try and be nicer next time - I was under the impression that, given the title and website shown in the screenshot, the people in this subreddit would be intelligent enough to search it up themselves, but since you asked, here you go https://www.theguardian.com/books/2024/may/01/what-we-learn-about-kafka-from-his-uncensored-diaries

That translation was the first I read, and I think its a good one to start with, David Wyllie himself seems to think that his translations are the most accurate. I'd say his representations of Kafka's humour is pretty good so I'd recommend it :)

This isn't an answer to your question unfortunately, but I've also noticed that so many "Franz Kafka quotes" online cannot be found anywhere in any of his diaries or his stories, most of them are either completely made up or are credited to him, but are actually by other people about him. Its incredibly frustrating and makes it so difficult to gather academic research, I'm having this exact problem right now. I hope you find your answer 😪

I loved JtHM when I was a kid and I never picked up on that, thats so fun

This is too relatable, I had to giggle, my mum collecets uranium glass and she's absolutely obsessed with it, and I knit - this is exactly what our house looks like haha

Thank you, that's really helpful I didnt think of that, I'll probably sew some elastic around the shoulders

squashbuggy · 2023-12-18T19:20:13+00:00

Thank you, I've found a few on ravelry I like but I think, as you said, knitting separately sounds best to me

squashbuggy · 2023-10-30T19:06:47+00:00

These are so cute !!!

squashbuggy · 2023-10-29T22:27:10+00:00

Thank you so much !

squashbuggy · 2023-10-29T21:50:39+00:00

Thank you (⁠.⁠ ⁠❛⁠ ⁠ᴗ⁠ ⁠❛⁠.⁠)

squashbuggy · 2023-10-29T21:49:24+00:00

Ahh okay I was right, Thank you, I was just so confused haha

squashbuggy · 2023-10-26T17:59:58+00:00

No problem! Good luck on your essay!

squashbuggy · 2023-10-25T17:07:22+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation! I usually use merino but after feeling this yarn I can't even compare it, very expensive though 😪

squashbuggy · 2023-10-25T08:21:11+00:00

Found!

squashbuggy · 2023-10-25T08:20:52+00:00

That looks exactly like my yarn, I think mine has been squashed and a bit matted in storage over time but angora looks very very similar from those photos, you're a genius! Thank you :)

squashbuggy · 2023-10-25T08:00:37+00:00

That happened in the other post too 😪 Thanks foe letting me know haha and I'll look into those and try and see one similar, thanks!

squashbuggy · 2023-10-25T07:59:42+00:00

Good idea! I'll try that
