@LouiseTilbrook1 We often get hornets inside in spring. thought they were queen wasps at first & we killed many, not wanting wasp nests. Then found out they're hornets & actually very peaceful AND apparently scare away wasps! Feel bad now about those we swatted but chase them out gently instead

I'm not much of a tweeter but am popping in today to say that like many others I am off ravelry for the next few days (at least) in solidarity with those who can no longer use the site.

#RavelryAccessibility

Aha ha ha ha ha ha NO

[Yarnpond @yarnpond]

@RachyNewin Wow 😯 haven't seen that one before

@kariebookish That scenery in the video too - I'm planning a move back to Christchurch so it really got me weepy

[Yarnpond @yarnpond]

@kariebookish OMG

Thank you. I love Bic

@LouiseTilbrook1 @KateHeppell All of my makeup is older than my kids, and about half of it is clinique freebies, and I suddenly feel less alone in the world 😂

@PandoraKnits @LouiseTilbrook1 As a kid, within my family we would always call particularly big ugly spiders "Boris", but I never knew why! I should look up that song ...

@Sarah_Dawns I'm so sorry Sarah 😥 she was blessed to have found a loving home with you ❤

Thread. The last tweet in the thread is great, and so is Dr. Gladys Mae West.

Husband saw a news headline last night that someone had taken a chainsaw into a bar in town. My reaction: "people are going to bars?!" 😣

[Yarnpond @yarnpond]

@naogannet Ah yes VAT handling is worth trying to avoid 😣

[Yarnpond @yarnpond]

@naogannet Right it was gumroad, they have a subscription thing that looks a bit patreon-ish. It would be smart of payhip to add subscriptions right about now!

[Yarnpond @yarnpond]

@naogannet I think I just scrolled past something proposing gumtree as an alternative? Or wait is it gum-something else, gumroad? GumThing. Gee look at me being super helpful 😂

[Yarnpond @yarnpond]

@naogannet I don't have a specific recommendation for you, but in terms of fibre I've had good results with high-twist corriedale. I like to add duplicate stitch reinforcement in the high wear areas & if that area felts a little bit then it helps with durability
