Good for it! I didn't even look at the requirements and just used the yarn and needles I always use. As long as all your yarn is fingering weight and your needles are somewhere between 2.5 and 3 mm, you're good!

I hope you still wear them 😂

Haha thanks! I'm surprised too. I want to do more colorwork because I want to improve my tension :)

I am so sorry! This is really heartbreaking :( I hope they'll take back the tariffs!

Yes, I agree!

I think folks in Canada are really mad at Trump (and probably those who voted for him) and not Americans in general. Yes, it is an important friendship.

Yes, it's a shame!
February 3, 2025 at 3:49 PM
I'm sorry! I hope Americans are able to resist as much as possible.
February 3, 2025 at 3:44 PM
I agree! Everyone loses!

Yes, I'm knitting in the round with magic loop. It works just as well as on dpns. My book says it's written for dpn but can be knit on circulars. The only time dpns are even mentioned is during the thump and it's easily translated to circulars 😊

Yeah he's basically running three economies into the ground and people everywhere already struggle to by groceries!

I'm so glad that there's politicians out there fighting this! We've been stocking up on staples too.

I'm so sorry too!! I can't imagine what it's like living in the US under this regime! I hope there will be lots of resistance in all areas!
