Thank you! I really took my time with the topstitching and thankfully it paid off.

This weekend, I finished my third pair of #MNDawnJeans and they turned out amazing. I'm really proud of my topstitching and I couldn't be more in love with this incredible Merchant&Mills denim. You can find all my notes & pics on Threadloop bitly.cx/FPkYr (or just ask me ๐Ÿ˜‰)

What does "Rechts wird nur gestrickt" mean? Here's some context:
in German we refer to knit/purl as knitting right ("rechts")/knitting left. So this phrase plays on the double meaning of "rechts" (knitting plain and right-wing politics) and loosely translates to "right is only for knitting".

The state of this world is scary and I'm still in shock that Austria is set to get a far-right chancellor. Knitting helps me a lot to calm down and relax. So it only felt natural to make a political statement in form of this jumper. I will explain the meaning of the phrase below in the comments.

So far I haven't heard from anyone having the same problem. Now I'm wondering if having two accounts with the same IP address might be the issue. I made an appeal but I'm still waiting for an answer ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ.

I ordered it online because I couldn't find it anywhere else, as well ๐Ÿ˜

Thank you! Luckily I did some testing first. I didn't like the outcome of using my real fabric scissors and knitting needles, so I made my own carton stencil to achieve the result I wanted.

My private account is fine but the account for my small business got suspended for "bulk following" after hitting the "follow all" button of a sewing related starter pack ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ.

Thank you so much ๐Ÿ’™! I didn't want to buy a new pattern so I used the #matchatop by sewliberated as a base, gave it more ease/length, added dropped shoulders, and drafted a new sleeve.

Oh, that's exactly what I need! I've just tried to add some alt text but apparently it's not possible to edit a post?!? I will try it again later on my laptop... Hate doing that kind of stuff on my phone ๐Ÿ˜….

Shoot, I forgot to add alt text this time! Thank you so much ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ!

Yes, that was always annoying on Instagram. Thanks for your tip, I will give it a try! But at the moment I'm more worried about my suspended account... The #sewskyChallenge starts soon and I would have loved to have an up and running account by then ๐Ÿซ .

I made myself a comfy "work dress", heavily inspired by the #naniiroworkshirt. It gives off some nightgown vibes, that's why I like to wear it with my hacked #spkeatonvest. Still have to figure out how I'm going to share more details about my makes with a character limit of 300 ๐Ÿ˜ฌ. #sewing

Wow, this must be definitely one of my favourite versions of this skirt! The colours are ๐Ÿ”ฅ! And would love to give some guidance but I'm feeling rather lost here ๐Ÿคฃ

Thank you! I really recommend it! It's not only fun but also a great way to personalise a garment!

Thank you and a big YESSSSS to more mountain content ๐Ÿ—ป๐Ÿ‘! Oh, and dog content as well ๐Ÿ˜‰! Love the bed you made for June!

Haha, I quit FB a couple of years ago but had to rejoin for a course last year... I was completely and utterly lost ๐Ÿ˜‚. It's insane how much changed in 9 years. I'm glad the course is over and I don't have to use it anymore. But yeah, I'm also having a hard time of leaving Instagram.

yes, and that's exactly what I wrote in my appeal :D! I hope it gets resolved quickly ๐Ÿคž.

Thank you so much! It was a lot of fun but I was really glad that I did some testing on paper first. But I can highly recommend it!
