@Emotional_Series7814 the book says “wrap the yarn”, that’s English. Continental would be picking the yarn with your right needle.

Then came the January Stitches and Cream sock club with a heel-up(!) DK slipper pattern which I can do(!!) and it’s SO MUCH FUN it’s probably illegal in several regions. Needless to say it’s way less complicated than it looks 😆 @[email protected] @[email protected] #knitting #sockknitting #breien

Can we talk about the neurotic knitter’s* dream gradient yarn, the Zauberperlen (“magic pearls”)? This is so much fun it’s probably illegal somewhere. @a.gup.pe (mastodon.nl)
