    Ugg slippers way back in March. They’ve now seen me through both Aussie winter and now German winter. ❤️ https://t.co/5ujjYBn9YW


    I’m sewing a shirt today. You can have a peek at my craft room if you like! https://t.co/SGy8OKVXiF https://t.co/WgJ0h6gova


    @codepo8 Saving that one for my series sewing Star Trek cosplay.

    Currently taking a break for lunch. Back soon to actually cut out the shirt!


    @bec_h2o You should!


    Back at it! Time to cut… https://t.co/u2Rsx5GtLw


    Today I assembled the #peppermintrufflesleevetop pattern, did an FBA, cut out the pieces, joined the front and back, made matching continuous bias binding (rather than facing), and attached around the neckline. Tomorrow the sleeves! Check it out on https://t.co/sr3OvwloZy. https://t.co/1K6zVB4OHF

    First day of vacation, and I’m already bored. Let’s stream some knitting! Did I mention I’m knitting the Covid-19 genetic sequence into a scarf? 🧶🧣 https://t.co/SGy8OKVXiF https://t.co/VxiRKPBjfz

    @jcnsingapore For now, I’m finding the subtitles helpful to make sure I’ve understood correctly. (I’m also a visual learner so I think it sticks more for me that way.) I’ll try it without eventually!

    @benbritten @parisba I’m offended. I mean, as a knitter. Machine-knit fairisle?! They haven’t even centered the motifs! And what’s with those non-symmetric peeries in the middle. Ugh. 😜

    @mage0r @Paul_Bone I would 100% subscribe to Code & Croissants. 😍


    @aaronwalker Because I like it, and I also enjoy watching traditionalists’ heads explode. 😂


    @Paul_Bone @mage0r @diz_beth Followed!


    Happy to report that my “Chestnuts Roast on an Open Fire” cocktail won today’s team competition! I’ve just blogged the recipe and process, which included making my own chestnut syrup and eggnog. 😂🌰🔥🏆 https://t.co/RY8bHL0jr6 https://t.co/4zI2xvnGFQ

    I set up extensive Twitter mute lists and managed to remain unspoiled for the Mandalorian finale (to watch over the holidays). Then, of course, someone in the @binge_mode FB group had to post a screenshot of a tweet. 🤬 #ffs #2020

    @raupach Hahaha, are they not meant to be eaten?! I assumed they were, but maybe no German ever actually eats the supermarket Hexenhaus kit. 😂 (@codepo8??)

    @carbolicious German gingerbread is different than what I’m used to. It’s thicker and softer, more cakey.

    @simonwaight @FloorDrees Hmmm. I haven’t used anything great TBH. If you Google for “knitters graph paper” you can download paper set to specific gauges so at least you know accurately what it will look like. I use image editor to layer my source image and then manually colour in the relevant boxes.


    @simonwaight @FloorDrees It’s a good question though. I’ll make a note to talk about it on my knitting Twitch stream tomorrow!


    @TheWonkaTonka You should give it a go if it’s on your Netflix. I loved it (even though due to the accents I missed 15% of the dialogue). 😂


    Fit check! Good grief, still knitting. Didn’t hit my goal of finishing during #reinvent, but hey, there are more sessions in January. 😜🧶 https://t.co/ksU5LTJXZa

    Overheard: “… and that was the night I passed out in the graveyard!”

    Every time one of the Snook’s uni buddies visits, the stories come out.


    “…And that was the night you lost the power of speech! And you were hitting on that girl, and we had to translate on your behalf!”

    “… And that was one of those nights when I cried. Inconsolably.”

    I’ll leave it up to you to guess who each story applies to.
