This!! Yes, I hope with time they will improve the way exercise is captured, like you say - we’re not going anywhere and heart rate not going up! (Unless it’s a tubular bind off, and I mess it up- the stress!)

Ah yes, I could probably go in and edit 👍 Thanks

Hahaha, exactly this!! It’s definitely going down the sofa cushions if I take it off ⌚️😆🤦‍♀️

Swimming! 🏊 😯 I’m stunned it can’t tell the difference between the movement of front crawl vs throwing a knit stitch!! 🤣

Am also planning to watch Wild At Heart, one that I’ve never seen.

Wonderful, what will you watch? I’ve recently rewatched The Lost Highway, and will also rewatch Fire Walk With Me shortly (one of my faves)

Good question - I usually just knit it to the pre blocked size, but it could of course be interpreted the other way. I would say it’s a judgement call for you based on what bit of the pattern you are knitting & what impact pre vs post block length would have on the design. Not very helpful, sorry!!

So many questions!! Aside from the obvious white-pointy-hat, why are they wearing the masks but not skiing? Why is there a pie?!
comment in response to post
Yeah, I’ve seen - they look pretty creative! I’m more aghast that the magazine editor didn’t clock that the white pointy hat one on the left looks, well, KKK-ish in the photo
comment in response to post
😂😂😂 Brilliant 😂😂😂 Also a mantra for life!
comment in response to post
Oh goodness! Those are pretty out there!

Further info - the designer is Meg Swansen, and the magazine says “Meg Swansen’s masks are perfect blank canvases for any weirdness you can imagine knitting.” Archive magazine article is here - archive.org/details/thre...
