@ajsadauskas @pluralistic @technology Anyone who's put all their precious eggs in one basket controlled by someone/something else is a fool.

@thegiddystitcher @Timecircleline If that's what your psyche is telling you to do then that's what's needed...it'll make you feel better I'm sure...plus, it'll be useful not just ornamental. I'll provide other justifications if you need them...

@thegiddystitcher @Aarrodri The hardest bit is understanding and being able to follow a pattern in the right way!

@kurobita @thegiddystitcher When I was on holiday in Iceland last summer, I went into a Christmas shop in Reykyavik, THE Christmas shop! They had lots of tiny little sweaters and hats knitted with Icelandic wool with patterns as Christmas ornaments...and tiny knitted figures of all kinds too...it was SO cute!

@jkirkendall @knitting Ooooh, very nice. My neighbour's just told me there's a new wool shop and haberdashery opened within nice walking distance of my house so yes, a visit on Saturday is planned...
