Couscous Knits

Why are some people acting as if charlie kirk getting shot is the most horrifying and gruesome video they've seen? A genocide has been livestreamed for the past two years. Those are the videos I find horrifying.

I'm ordering yarn once I finish this damn assignment. I need a treat to survive this.

I get the sentiment but I don't like being a thoughtless consumer 😞 I'm mindful with every other purchase but yarn brings something horrible out of me smh

Told myself I'll use up my stash this year. Which I somewhat did! But I've also bought more yarn this year than ever before and ended up with a bigger stash than at the beginning of the year🥲

Went swimming and I think the sea was more jellyfish than water. They're harmless and kinda cute but they still startle me with every touch 😮‍💨

Why haven't I been knitting socks?? Such a perfect project to take on a train (or anywhere) with you🧶

This yarn is too lovely for me to throw it away 😞😞 into the freezer it goes and I'll see if I'll ask for a refund once I rewind it and see how much damage there is. The other yarn was the one with eggs and I'll probably ask for a refund for that😓

Bought 1,4kg of secondhand yarn. Checked some of the skeins when I picked it up and they seemed fine. Came home and noticed some of it was eaten and there are eggs in a few of the skeins 😭😭😭😭

The man who was selling his grandma's old stash was very understanding though, said he can give me a refund

Finally finished my framework bralette by jessie maed designs 🧶
I knit it in less then a week and then was too lazy to finish the straps for a few months. Made using thrifted cotton I got for 1€ 😊😊

And today you are celebrating the genocide in Gaza. I doubt "the mothers in Srebrenica who carry the weight of that loss for decades" are feeling honoured.

May we both get some knitting done 🫡

So many knitting plans and so little time 😞

It's a bit too hot for it now, but it was a great piece for spring!

I'm assuming that was supposed to be addi clicks, but I would absolutely buy aldi interchangables if they existed

It was horrible being my roommate a few months ago when I read that series. I wouldn't shut up about the Murderbot.

Thank you!

Finished knitting my tolsta tank (vest, DK) !! 🧶

It was my first time knitting with slub yarn and I love how fun the texture is :)

I'm sad about how badly my phone takes pictures of this yarn though 👎👎

I've only used 50 cent thrift store fixed circulars and a drops interchangeable needle set (cost like 30€) for years. I find it tragic that sometimes an expensive version actually is better 😭 I finally understand why people rave so much about chiaogoo

My country would never have this much of a backbone 🎉 let's fund more wars and kill more innocent civilians for no reason.

Bought my first chiaogoo knitting needles (just size 2 and 2,25mm for socks) and I'm sad to report that they're worth every cent 😓🧶 the cables are sooo good

Decided to knit a tolsta tank (DK, vest version) with it :)) 🧶 I'm loving the colour and texture!

It was actual mental torture 😭 so glad it's over

Same! I've been trying really hard to limit my knitting time

Finished knitting the Kylie Pullover by Irene Lin 🧶

Knit using thrifted cotton yarn that cost me 2,5€ in total

I'm also out of the knitting hand pain jail after almost two months of no knitting 🎉

Still can't knit :((((( very sad

I'm also starting to think my knitting break will be longer than I thought at first 🥲 good luck to our limbs!

It's unbearably cute!!

Finally wearing a crochet hexagon shirt two years after it was trendy 🧶

This project taught me that neverending granny stripes may be worse than neverending stockinette!

I think the brace has been slightly helpful for me already by restricting awkward movement. I'll definitely have to do some training and stretching as well. Thank you for sharing!

And the knitting pain continues! 🧶🥲 Haven't touched knitting needles in a while but I can't rest my hands bc i either type assignments for uni or use my hands at my housekeeping job daily...

Really hope this brace thing helps a bit because it was 40€ and I hate spending money 😗
