I was on a FB page reading an explanation from a small wool company in the UK who has put a halt to shipping to the US (wholesale and web site orders) until they understand the impact of the tariffs on the price of a skein of wool in the US stores.

MAGA to the rescue!

They told the wool company to pay the tariff and to eliminate the VAT and there would be no increase to the consumer In the US.

After socks, spring knitting!☀️
One finished, the second one well underway. Made of cotton and bamboo, it's light and supple, just how I like it!
(I still have one pair of socks on the way, and one ordered to make! Phew! I'd miss it otherwise!😆)
Après les chausettes, tricot de printemps!☀️
Un de fini, le 2e en bonne voie.
En coton et bamboo, c leger et souple comme j'aime! (j'ai quand même encore une paire de chausettes en route, et une de commandée à faire! ouf!)

Vanishing Culture: Punch Card Knitting via The Internet Archive [Shared]

Punch cards are a fascinating binary data storage format that aren’t just history—they’re still used by knitting machines today! Thanks to the Internet Archive and other collections, we still have access to historic punch cards, but there are some technical challenges to using them in the format they’re stored in. Meet a few folx working on those challenges.

Bored at work so minor update! I joined a mystery knit along blanket and I've been meaning to post about it but.... Meh.

Each month they send us 1-2 patterns to knit and at the end of the year we'll join them all together to get rather unique blankets.

Here's my squares for January.*
