I’m feeling 82 instead of 62 today. Aches & pains: left heel (splinter); right knee (old injury + arthritis); lower back (not enough exercise); left lower jaw (?); headache (weather). Gray, gloomy, rainy day. Noise levels everywhere made me twitchy. I’m not fit for human company. *grump*

Remember in May when Trump gave asylum to 17 family members of the Sinaloa cartel after making a deal with El Chapo’s son? And did you know in 2013, El Chapo bribed Juan Hernandez- who trump just pardoned - in exchange for protection in Honduras? I’m sure it’s all just a coincidence.

Continental knitting was a game changer for my ribbing!
Finding a way to tension my yarn was the key to my success.
Now I can knit both styles which also helps me with colorwork too.
Will you try this?

Floats running wild in your colourwork projects? 😅 Let’s tame them #knitsky!
Steps to trap left-hand float:
1. Insert the right needle into the next stitch.
2. Life left-hand yarn over tip.
3. Knit yarn from the right hand, holding the left-hand yarn above.

These boat strikes will be nothing compared to the war crimes they will commit after they initiate regime change to seize Venezuelan oil companies.

Lash Patel is an incompetent jackass. Loser!
Per a new report, Kash Patel refused to exit his plane without an FBI jacket, but the only one that would fit him was a woman’s jacket. Then he demanded SWAT patches for it. www.scribd.com/document/958...

This is such a good article! It doesn't say too much about huge hair, but it covers the basics of hats that actually fit.
And I agree with Kate, I'm on the other end of the head spectrum (63?cm and long curly hair) and I find the one size thing that exists even in the knitting world very annoying.

I think this is as close to a gradient knit I have done for #showMeYourKnits. This is the first ever shawl I knit and one of the first bigger projects I ever made. Reyna Shawl on Ravelry and KC (Joann’s brand yarn) cotton sport weight yarn.
