Threads post by ashleighellan TOPICAL knitting fact of the day... Prisoners of war in Nazi camps were put to work knitting socks for officers. They intentionally would do additional decreases in the heels, so that the socks would ALWAYS rub and give the officers blisters. They would also make sure that one of the socks had loose ribbing so the officers would spend all day having their sock fall off in their boot. A spy called Alexis Casadagli, took up needlework and almost all of his work has "Fuck Hitler" in morse code. 560 likes • 7 replies Overlaid text: Knitting = resistance

I don't have a babysitter for my little. So tonight, I'm listening to the cast of BG3 play D&D while I knit. It's hilarious & I highly recommend it.

Do they get along? My little & the cat are best frenemies.

Honestly, the cat & my little are the owners of the house. I'm just the giver of snacks & cuddles.

A combination of a few of my favorite things!

Lol she does! Those deadly little claws were slowly flexing open to capture her prey. Unfortunately for her she was moved before she was successful

I'm so close but not close enough. They're all the wrong weight & color. I still have another order coming in w/the right cotton yarn. But it's always a good day when a undamaged package comes in. Especially when it carries more goodies to create with

I know I'm not the only one to have multiple projects going at once. I'm not sure what I'm going to use this filet crochet piece for. But I'll come up with something

This looks just wonderful

I hope to have more of the crochet cotton sometime tomorrow. Then I can have it finished by the end of the week.

Thank you 😊

I only have 6 rows & the edging left to this vintage headpiece pattern. But I can already tell that I've lost this game of yarn chicken. I really thought that I had enough, but what's in my inventory is a heavier weight. Which is sad bc the color match was perfect

My cat is a beautiful menace. I envy those who can work on their craft with their fur baby on their lap. Mine just waits patiently for me to look away before attacking my projects.
