it is indeed utter lunacy, and I wish we afford the same generous interpretation of "freedom of speech" to individuals as we do to corporations!

I also currently have two bags in my fridge, they will be my second and third bags lol

You're probably right about them freezing well!, I'm gonna get another couple bags for the freezer too 😂

(With my dietary restrictions there are so few off the shelf treats I can eat, these are extra magical!)

They are vegan and gluten-free and with other than the cocoa powder are low histamine

I seem to be able to well tolerate like 3/4 of the wee squares (and will eat a whole one sometimes and deal with the mast cell consequences bc they are SO GOOD)

A similar measure is currently working its way through city council here in PDX, I hope it passes!

oo I love this one too

I also get a lot of mental visuals when thinking about null spaces so I understand the need to draw it out! :)

Yeah, I'm making sure to keep the thrown color as the bottom-most. :)

So I've got two colors in my left hand, the top and middle strands, then the thrown color is effectively always going to be the bottom (and there most dominant) unless you do something really funny with how you throw it

ok I know we've seen your abs at this point but holy shit you can really tell how strong your core is getting with these moves! graceful and elegant af 👏

🤩 Thank you!

It seems to be going ok so far and I've even figured out how to keep the dominance order consistent, while also catching floats...it's just veeery slow 😆

yeah I've gained comfort with two-color stranded knitting, and am even more or less happy with my tension thereof these days, but three strands is gonna be next level lol

I should probably watch a youtube video for advice or something but I kinda just want to wing it and see how it goes

I usually hold both colors in my left hand (and twirl them in such a way that they can run independently to avoid tension mismatch), but I think I'm just gonna try throwing the third color? hrm 🤔
