Thanks for sharing this, I didn’t know about some of these and always fun to learn more.

I’ve tried Portuguese, continental and English but stayed with continental. Getting purls down with even tension and not hurting my wrist took some time but got there in the end

It’s obviously me!

Both comments are showing for me! Thanks for that, the cable jumper I’m doing right now is a merino/acrylic blend and it’s getting very heavy and thick so I’m getting a bit anxious about how wearable it’ll be. I guess it’s all learning.

I hope you get many wonderful wears from your jumper and have a lovely Christmas

This looks great! I’ve been tempted with chunky yarns for a jumper, however the next one in my queue is fingering weight so I’ll have to wait a bit.

Is the acrylic comfy to wear? Or does it get too hot?

There’s some of the obvious ones like cleanliness and being kind to service people. I think dress sense is one to a degree as well, I don’t mean being super curated but at least putting some effort in.

One of the more boring ones I’ve picked up as I’ve aged is financial literacy and being good with money. I love a guy with a big spreadsheet.

Hobbies is one for me too. Something people are interested in or passionate about gives them depth and character.

I’m the same, looking straight at it all I can see is white and gold. Like a bright gold even, it’s not even brown.

If I look at it in my peripheral vision it’s very clearly blue and black though 🤷.

They were absolutely the best. I was watching that episode with my dad the other week and he said something along the lines of how cute a couple they were.

It was a really lovely moment for me seeing such sweet representation and also hearing my dad say something positive. Growing up he’d switch the channel or make vomit noises if he saw a gay couple on TV so he’s really progressed. Made sure to tell him I appreciate that he’s done that and had a nice bonding moment!
