Thank you! I really took my time with the topstitching and thankfully it paid off.

This weekend, I finished my third pair of #MNDawnJeans and they turned out amazing. I'm really proud of my topstitching and I couldn't be more in love with this incredible Merchant&Mills denim. You can find all my notes & pics on Threadloop bitly.cx/FPkYr (or just ask me πŸ˜‰)

What does "Rechts wird nur gestrickt" mean? Here's some context:
in German we refer to knit/purl as knitting right ("rechts")/knitting left. So this phrase plays on the double meaning of "rechts" (knitting plain and right-wing politics) and loosely translates to "right is only for knitting".

The state of this world is scary and I'm still in shock that Austria is set to get a far-right chancellor. Knitting helps me a lot to calm down and relax. So it only felt natural to make a political statement in form of this jumper. I will explain the meaning of the phrase below in the comments.

So far I haven't heard from anyone having the same problem. Now I'm wondering if having two accounts with the same IP address might be the issue. I made an appeal but I'm still waiting for an answer πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ.

I ordered it online because I couldn't find it anywhere else, as well 😁

Thank you! Luckily I did some testing first. I didn't like the outcome of using my real fabric scissors and knitting needles, so I made my own carton stencil to achieve the result I wanted.

My private account is fine but the account for my small business got suspended for "bulk following" after hitting the "follow all" button of a sewing related starter pack πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ.

Thank you so much πŸ’™! I didn't want to buy a new pattern so I used the #matchatop by sewliberated as a base, gave it more ease/length, added dropped shoulders, and drafted a new sleeve.

Oh, that's exactly what I need! I've just tried to add some alt text but apparently it's not possible to edit a post?!? I will try it again later on my laptop... Hate doing that kind of stuff on my phone πŸ˜….

Yes, that was always annoying on Instagram. Thanks for your tip, I will give it a try! But at the moment I'm more worried about my suspended account... The #sewskyChallenge starts soon and I would have loved to have an up and running account by then 🫠.

I made myself a comfy "work dress", heavily inspired by the #naniiroworkshirt. It gives off some nightgown vibes, that's why I like to wear it with my hacked #spkeatonvest. Still have to figure out how I'm going to share more details about my makes with a character limit of 300 😬. #sewing

Wow, this must be definitely one of my favourite versions of this skirt! The colours are πŸ”₯! And would love to give some guidance but I'm feeling rather lost here 🀣

Thank you! I really recommend it! It's not only fun but also a great way to personalise a garment!

Thank you and a big YESSSSS to more mountain content πŸ—»πŸ‘! Oh, and dog content as well πŸ˜‰! Love the bed you made for June!

Haha, I quit FB a couple of years ago but had to rejoin for a course last year... I was completely and utterly lost πŸ˜‚. It's insane how much changed in 9 years. I'm glad the course is over and I don't have to use it anymore. But yeah, I'm also having a hard time of leaving Instagram.

yes, and that's exactly what I wrote in my appeal :D! I hope it gets resolved quickly 🀞.

Thank you so much! It was a lot of fun but I was really glad that I did some testing on paper first. But I can highly recommend it!
