So much this. I would have my silversmithing shed, my sewing shed, my knitting shed, my watercolor shed and my oil painting shed. (Oil paints are a mess, they need their own shed) 💍🧵🧶🎨🖌️

I’m short and short waisted and my SO is very tall and lanky. All our clothing needs tailoring. These books make knitting to our unique bodies that much easier. Truly, thank you. 🧶

@kateatherley.bsky.social thank you so much for writing these books. I just received Math for Knitters and I’m feeling much more confident in my ability to adapt a sweater pattern for my next project.

Unfortunately true until now but we're working 2change this arrangement; Just not with the guillotine! 🤔The radical side of me must come from my 🇫🇷 heritage, which I treasure. When I hear myself say, "Let's bomb Moscow 2stop Putin," I now see where this deliberate angst comes from. I'm serious!🫡🇺🇸📜⚖️😺

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth
You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

This is a scourge and so discouraging. I love sewing but if I was just starting out and had bought one of these patterns when I was learning I would have thought it was too difficult and given up.

If you’re reading this and thinking “not me, I can stay on Twitter and not be affected, I’m just built different” — no, you are not.
the answer to "why has the supreme court gone insane" is the same as the answer to "why has elon musk gone insane" is the same as the answer to "why has my uncle gone insane" which is that people mostly mirror the prevailing beliefs in their social environment and they're immersed in nazi media

Knitters snagged by tariffs, as yarn 🧶brands pause shipments to U.S.
"At least a half dozen European brands suspended deliveries after the de minimis exemption ended, leaving crafters to contend with higher prices and supply issues."

How Private Equity is Reshaping the Crafts Industry - Craft Industry Alliance
Many of the recent shakeups in the craft world were instigated by private equity investors. A new book explains their motivations.
