Personally I like spinning fingering weight and do about 50g skeins a time. Also currently only drop pr support spindling. So maybe an ESpinner is a good candidate there.

Not sure about purling your last stitch,don't think it's needed. But you generally slip the first stitch purlwise, unless you're doing Ichord but that case I usually expect the salvedge to be made up of around 3 or more stitches. If the pattern doesn't specify, slip PW, knit last stitch like normal

After the announcement of redundancies yesterday at my work. I'm looking forward to retirement.

I frogged mohair multiple times. Not impossible but definitely not fun, I agree

The worst ones are the "meeting that could have been an email" where they simply "must speak face to face for collaboration" urgh! I used to have a 3hr commute, I basically switched jobs because I was sick of being pulled into the office with no prior notice.

Normal to an extent. You can slip the final stitch on each row (and then knit or purl it on the next row where it'll be the first stitch) there are other ways but that's the most common way to make a tidy salvage

I can't I'm at work 😭

23.5 squares left #knitting 🧶 #sweetshopblanket by #laurapenrose made with WYS colour lab DK latte as the main colour and 20g miniskeins I created from stash for the contrast colours. Each miniskein creates two half square triangles. Some I paired with some scrap mohair to create more variety

Yes, but let's give grace to those who don't speak English as their native language. In some languages both crafts use the same word with maybe a prefix added in instances where you want to differentiate them. So when learning English it can be confusing to some second language English speakers

Yes indeed 😁 🍪 Mum sits on the couch on the left so the puppy is on her right

Bingo. And that's the philosophical question isn't it? When is a visible repair visible? I think it's more of a gradient then a binary value :)

A circle. Or a 2nd vote for void 🖤

My strategy for this is to shashiko the entire trouser back. The legs included. It's taking ages but I'm enjoying the process. Trousers so wear at different places, but I sit a lot for my job so that's why mine wears in the back more. When I was younger it was always at the hems

As crass as it sounds, I always wear out my jeans in the same spot 🤐 I think it's because I sit a lot for my job

Clever, frugal, fun and gosh darn gorgeous 🤩

I love doing some visible mending 😁

This 😁
