Yes, it was a knit along. But I only managed one full sock before Christmas day.
Vanilla socks in Christmas themed yarn are definitely more achievable. 😀

Oh, now I wonder if I should have taken mine down... I've got guests tonight, and my tree is still up.

Ha! We started watching this tonight. But gave up on it. This review makes me think we made the right call.

I use dpns and knit a few extra stitches from the next needle each time so that the needle join floats move all the time.
I knit with both yarns on the left and knit continental. This has loosened my tension a bit, but evened it up.

So I don't think I have an inner voice. But I can certainly not notice conversation, including my name, when I'm reading or doing Maths without the need for headphones to block out the sound.

There's a GCSE Stats question on one of the Spec papers about a ripped piece of paper with a partial histogram.
One of my students annotated it "He should just print a new copy". 🤣

I use fabric stiffener on all my thread snowflakes.
First year I used starch, but those have needed redoing after a year.
I've used the brand HI TACK for a decade now. One bottle lasts me about that long. Just starting my second bottle.
