Tiny subspecies of #triceratops spottet in local kitchen.

The herbivor dwells near herbs and surprised scientists with its vibrant colour.

Progress. The second one seems so much easier. Faster.

Knitting project. One sock is finished. The second is still work in progress.

View through the glass-steel-framework of S-Bahn station Berlin Friedrichstraße at the office buildings behind it. Windows dark and lit create a weave of light and night.

Books the analog back-up :)
Yet, I‘m grateful for all the content creators and the knowledge they provide in a easily digestible way. 🙏

How did people learn any craft before youtube tutorials?
Watching Grandma I guess. Live „narrow“ cast in the living room. Free. Premium. No ads.

That knitting project takes for ever.
I might consider a career as a pirat just so that one sock will be enough.

🧶 #knitting

An unfinished coral sock with a small diamond pattern. A bit more than the toe part is still missing. There is a red life line which I could have needed earlier this day, when I started with dropping 3 loops that ran down 5 rows. Whoohoo! A lesson learned… once again.

How to deactivate auto-dubbing in embedded youtube videos?

I don‘t need a translation.
I don‘t need my ears stabbed.
It ruins the aesthetics of a video and erases once more a human factor in our communication.

Where is the off-switch?

Yup, I started doing that.
My ego is still complaining, but that life line already came handy …cough … times.

A hint of hope at row 27

Early stage of what hopefully will develop into cosy socks with a diamond pattern.

12 rows forward.
That‘s not looking as expected.
Back to row 15
8 rows forward.
Where is the 16th loop?
Back to row 15.
6 rows forward.
Extra loop? Have you been time traveling.
…

I love this beginner friendly, easy peasy pattern.

I started all over again and now I‘m at row 27 trying to tolerate a mistake in row 16 to 20. At least the number of loops on my needles is still correct. 💪

Just remembering me at row 15 wondering: „Should I secure this row before I start the pattern?“

Well, the answer should have been yes.

„Have you tried knitting? It’s so relaxing.“

It’s not. It’s 4 p.m., and I have 6 rows. Six.
But I very successfully cursed and yelled. A lot.

Let’s hope this will eventually become a wearable sock, accompanied by the motivation to make another.

I can‘t help but think that President Dump and his evil muppets are an US American autoimmune desease. The society went from chronically stressed to allergic to harmless things (e.g. women‘s right, gay marriage, trans people) to self destruction.
