Fun fact for you from a Deafie: ASL and FSL (French) are VERY closely related. The influenced each other a lot. British SL is closer to German than American. If you want more about ASL + FSL, go down a rabbit hole of Martha's Vineyard 🤟🏻

Thank you! Yes it was tricky due to the pattern giving charts then repeating the written instructions twice so I had a few hiccups haha but love it overall

Hi #knitsky ! I am back with another finished project
The Provence top by Ekaterina Vorobeva is a beautiful (and complicated to read) pattern. I am so happy I made it but I do not think my hands want to make this again 🤭💜

I love having long nails for purling (continental). I hate purling but the longer nail helps me to use less finger movement if that makes sense haha

It seems that my sunshine knitting this afternoon is bright enough to fool an enormous bumblebee! 🧶😍 #knitsky #bumblebee

I personally interp it either way depending on the book. Like a character study type would be both. But you can easily get stuck on/fight over whether development is lack of character due to authors intentions or lack of authors "ability" on page 💖
