Froukje 🧶 Knits and Spins

Sewing!

I have the same wheel! A kiwi, right? I started with a spindle too and I did need a lesson to figure out how to work the wheel and get a passable spin. But after that I learnt quickly on my own!

I got so good at enjoying my hobbies that I started to find more hobbies like them and now I haven’t got enough time in a day to do all my hobbies…. 😭 🧶

Oh you can add me too! Spin, knit, crochet…

On a choir rehearsal week in Germany. We both sing and vaguely knew (of) each other. Fell in love that week, almost 15 years and two kids ago.

I am on both, my username is in my bio here. I post more personal things on here though.

I am obsessed with this. I also want to eat them all.

Teaching in the week before Christmas break is a weird mix between feeling relaxed because it’s “just projects and activities” and being on the constant verge of tears because wtf how is it not break yet?

Happy birthday! 🎈

CATS from the video game Zero Wing (the All Your Base Are Belong To Us game), saying: "I am Locutus of Borg. Resistance is Futile"

Dracula from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, saying to Richter "Get out of my house"

The transportation advisor from SimCity 2000, saying "YOU CAN'T STAY ON TWITTER! YOU WILL REGRET THIS!"

My big project: The Death Generator.
It's a tool for making fake video game screenshots, just fill in new text and it'll give you a (generally) pixel-accurate image back, the correct fonts and everything.

That’s cute though. He’s been daddying with Penelope for so long I’m not that surprised tbh.

Author of Cass Review on NHS gender services takes seat in House of Lords Dr Hilary Cass, now known as Baroness Cass, has been formally introduced to the upper chamber, along with former Commons deputy speaker Eleanor Laing.

Oh wait, I think you mean an olympian whose name rhymes with Dom Taley?

Spill the tea, I somehow missed this.

I knit a pair of these when pregnant with my eldest and wore them during labour (until I took everything off of course). Still have them as bed socks!

Thanks! The red one was bought like this and spun from the fold. The other one was a pastel roving that I split into 4 shades and reblended into a long colour change, then did a kind of fractal 😅🩷

There’s loads of us but so many of the age group are L*rries or unbearable OT5s who secretly hate Harry.

It is also a little more uneven, because it was the first time doing this, of course.

I won! My first yarn 🧶 spun with supported long-draw. Looks pretty woollen spun to me! Also pictured is its short-forward-draw sister. I don’t see much of a difference but the long-draw (red tints) feels bouncier.

I am still on both but having more fun here (though not very much interaction with my posts yet)

Byeeeee

Like, I use it to study music for my projects and concerts too… and it also keeps pushing Gr*cie Abr*ms and Ch*rli XCX both of whom I have muted on there…

I want a daylist like that but my spotify is messed up…

Jag vet det! Men jag tror att jag ha inte ett svensk namn? Froukje bestämmar “husmor” eller “gift dam”. Jag hoppade att det kom från Freya, men ingen sådan lycka… (trying hard with my duolingo swedish).

Hi! I spin, knit, crochet and am dying to get into dyeing…

🩷 hello from behind my Kiwi 3!

Psssst Harry works with a band of insanely musically gifted and diverse musicians 🤓 probably a good model for recruiting actually. All there for their unique talent and what they bring to the whole.

Practising supported long draw from the fold today on this slippery merino/tussah silk blend. Just when I think I’ve got it I am punished with three breaks in three minutes 😅 looks good though? #spinning 🧶
