@FourRedShoes I’m loving these!

@MichelePlayfair @MoominOfficial I’m aware of it but haven’t gotten any yet! ❤️

Hm. I don’t think I’ve relented on any of my Personal Knitting Bans, but do let me know if you spot me knitting shawls (whether of the speckled vomit “Find your fade” variety or not), twee cardigans, or “graffiti knitting” to stick on a tree. #bahhumbug 🧶 https://t.co/GC1RnaFrw8

@lizthegrey Yowza. We only lasted about 2 weeks in an AirBnb when we got to Germany before jumping at a rental with separate offices with DOORS. Four months… would’ve been very challenging for us! 😂

My night to cook dinner: Maple-baked beans with smoked ham hock and bacon, served with dark bread and beer! 🍻 @ Munich, Germany https://t.co/CpymSUupUm

“Shake me up, Judy!” We finished the 2005 BBC Bleak House. It was *nothing* like Bridgerton, so that recommendation was nonsense. And for the record, I’d have married Wedge Antilles in a heartbeat. ❤️

RT @Amys_Kapers: Got a great speaker line-up organised for

@jcnsingapore It was Buzzfeed. I’m sorry @sam_cleal – nothing about Bleak House was “saucy”! https://t.co/OHDMt5AuuA 😂

---

@minxdragon I’ve always been a fan of daggy knitting! Would definitely knit one. 🙂

@The_McJones I only ever played it in single player mode, but Stardew Valley has multiplayer, yeah? That could be chill and fun. (Unfortunately for me, the Snook is of the “use a spreadsheet to maximise farm output” mindset, which tells you why I haven’t tried multiplayer yet…)

Several more motifs have been added to Orkney! 🧶 https://t.co/lYMhfPc1xv

RT @smdiehl: Let’s discuss the environmental cost of bitcoin. Because despite all the push for sustainable and green investment in the tech…

---

@tcn33 Not for knitting yarn. There are definitely tools for doing it with stranded cotton and tapestry wool, which are used for embroidery. It’s because those are standardised, but knitting yarn colours tend to change more frequently with fashion.

---

@tcn33 It’s also difficult to eyeball knitting yarn on computer. Your best bet is to take a printed colour sample into a yarn store and manually look. You can also ask to go through any sample books, which often have little knitted swatches in them.

---

Time for some glorious fairisle knitting! https://t.co/SGy8OKVXiF https://t.co/ve37jbM7ct

---

@randomknits JESUS. I just opened Tweetdeck and it looked like you’d been flayed.

---

@tcn33 Well, even if they could, a given yarn range might have, what, 3-4 different reds (or blues or greens, etc) at most? Even with the embroidery threads, it’s never an *exact* match. Only way to get it exact is to dye it yourself. 🙂

---

@tcn33 That would be an interesting service for some dyer to offer, actually…. Maybe you could commission one of them to do it?

---

@tcn33 Now that you’ve got me curious… the most used wool on Ravelry is Cascade 2020, which comes in around 190 colours: https://t.co/AGLLzPokEv. That’s the biggest range I’ve seen, and certainly more than any Aussie producer.

---

@tcn33 I can’t find anyone who’s mapped them to hex or Pantone colours though….

---

There’s nothing like telling the livestream over and over for an hour to pay attention and check each row for errors (TDD!) only to discover that you got distracted and made an error on the previous row and have to spend 30 minutes tinking and reknitting. 😐

@goldfishgeorge It’s very pretty though!!

Watching Independence Day auf Deutsch, for the first time in forever, and just realised that one of the crashed alien spaceships lands right on Sydney’s Eastern suburbs. “And nothing of value was lost,” snarks the Snook. 😂 https://t.co/2ioX0iRvqu

---

I saw the 2005 BBC “Bleak House” adaptation on a list of “If you liked Bridgerton we recommend this…” but I’m halfway through and there’s been no nudity and no doing it. It’s just Wedge Antilles pining, Tywin Lannister being evil, and Johnny Vegas spontaneously combusting. 🤨

---

@Baba_Lilith Well, I actually am enjoying it, but it really doesn’t have anything in common with Bridgerton other than being a period costume piece.

---

After all that endless 4ply in Lanatus, it’s nice to be back to DK for Orkney! ❤️ https://t.co/MDVYyxcVlf
