WIP: Monday sweater (feddit.de)
 

I've recently begun the Monday sweater by PetiteKnit with some discounted alpaca yarn I had lying around.

Has anyone here knit this pattern yet and can share some tips? I'm knitting quite a small size because 15-20 cm of ease seems excessive for me. Stay tuned to see if I am going to regret this choice later on :D

I don't think sugar is too healthy for a kitty.

His decision is not to be trusted. He regularly tries to steal bread and eats small pieces of foam.

At first, I thought he was going to sniff it and walk away.

Then, I thought he would only lick the water off.

BUT THEN HE BIT INTO IT.

And no, I didn't let him eat the whole strawberry.

Bitte nicht steinigen: Guter Padkaffee? (feddit.de)
 

Hi zusammen, ich oute mich mal als Banause: Der von mir verzehrte Kaffee kommt zu 90 % aus meiner Senseo-Padmaschine. Das geht zwischen Meetings schnell, mir wird nicht immer eine ganze Kanne kalt, die Maschine gab's günstig gebraucht und mein Freund kann sie auch bedienen.

Wie ihr euch sicher denken könnt (falls ihr nicht instant downgevotet habt), habe ich keine besonders hohen Mindestansprüche an meinen Kaffee, schätze aber Qualität, so ich sie denn mit wenig Aufwand vorgesetzt bekomme, schon.

Bedeutet: Die Eigen-Billigmarken der Discounter mag ich zwar nicht sonderlich, trinke sie aber trotzdem, weil verfügbar. Ich hab auch schon die Pads von Lavazza ausprobiert und fand die eigentlich gar nicht schlecht.

Daher meine Frage: Was ist der beste Padkaffee, den ihr bisher getrunken habt?

What's your most knit item category? (feddit.de)
 

As I knit mostly for myself, it follows that I have to knit items I am likely to wear.

And I don't like wearing a lot of knit items - I like knitting and creating things by hand but I hate the feel/look of anything other than sweaters and cardigans, which is quite unfortunate for a knitter.

You wouldn't catch me dead in a knit skirt or dress, for example. Also, I can't tolerate knit socks on my skin but I am thinking about giving this one a try again.

Sweaters and cardigans unfortunately take me a long time so I am glad to knit some small stuff for others when I get the chance. I really enjoy the process and I think I create beautiful stuff. I haven't had the chance to knit for others too often, though.
