I don't know how many of you are aware of / interested in British politics but I'm just putting it out there that I want to be Count Binface when I grow up

I have so much sand in my shoes it's unreasonable

i'm really glad 6 isnt afraid of 7 anymore and you could all stand to be more supportive of their relationship

I've had to frog 3 days of progress on my newest project (maybe forever sweater by Kutovakika) after I cast on 10 too few stitches 😭😭😭

Realistically I did not frog that much knitting, but I'm knitting really slowly at the moment and this feels like my life's work 😭😭😭😭

Stella top by Svetlana Volkova

Unknown yarn from stash (I think it might be King Cole Cottonsmooth DK) with 3.5mm needles

Started April 2026, finished June 2026

I love this project and want to make it in every colour!! This type of tank top feels like a real wardrobe basic for me, and I really like the way that the stella top came out

Because I made this during exam season (boo :(( ), it felt like it took a while - not helped by how I got a wrist injury from typing too much halfway through the body

I thought I wouldn't like the bottom up construction / would find it difficult to fit, but turns out doing a gauge swatch and tonnes of maths make sure that it came out the perfect length <3

Doing this project immediately after the campanula dress means I'm so ready to move on from mixed rib now

I'm doing i-cord bind off for the first time and istg it is my new mortal enemy

This neckline is the bane of my existence

[sadclowncentral]

seething about the fact that i will never experience photosynthesis in my own useless cells. i bet it feels so good when the light of the sun both warms you and fuels you at the same time. a bone-deep satisfaction mixed with a heated sugar-rush and endless brightness. not that i would fucking know

I have fucked up my wrist by typing wrong (??) and cannot knit for at least a week

What do non-knitters do when they are watching YT/TV in the evenings???

I need a hobby you don't need your hands for I guess

Does anyone have any suggestions???

[homunculus-argument]

I don't think anyone needs to be over 170 cm. That's just excessive. Frivolous amount of length. There is no need for all that. Tall people are a scam invented by Big Furniture to justify building rickety, non-climbable shelves.

I am fine with spiders most of the time. I will even hold spiders to move them away from people who are afraid of spiders

However, I draw the line at spiders when I am naked. An arachnid should not be anywhere near that much exposed skin or that many exposed holes

Campanula dress by Anna Hermann Sørensen

Yarnsmiths cotton DK in sienna red with 3mm needles

Started January 2026, finished April 2026

I'm so proud of this one!!! It took 4 months of monogamous knitting and I'm so excited to start working on smaller, shorter term projects.

The pattern was excellent, but it came out a bit big for me because I misread the pattern when I was knitting the bodice (I accidentally made it one size too big :( )

The yarn is super smooth and pretty nice to knit with but it pills horrifically - I have tiny bits of red yarn all over my sofa. I also overbought massively and have seven balls left (what should I make out of it?)

[lms-makes]

Everyone look at the knitting needle holder I made!!

I used some fabric that I impulse bought for £4 a year ago

I saw a very important safety sign in my dream

It was the type of sign that should be in a lab, but it was in a Halfords

[draconym]

do you think two pennies is still enough for the ferryman or has inflation driven up the fare

if he makes me use an app I am simply not crossing the river Styx.

I put my hair in an overnight curler and it decided an appropriate response would be to stand up straight??

[homunculus-argument]

I don't go to places where the trees won't go. They have a good taste, they know what they like and I like what they like. If I go somewhere and there's no trees, I'm leaving, because it probably sucks in there. The trees knew this, and that's why they're not there.
