2009 - 2019 knitting edition

i already knew how to crochet, thanks to my grandma, and then refreshers on youtube

but i taught myself to knit, using just youtube and tutorials on knitty and knittinghelp.com during 2009

and this year, i finished my first ever sweater (for my 5 year old child). nevermind the fact i started it 2 years ago.

more tips!

home TL: posts by people you follow, and stuff they boost

local TL: only posts from users on your instance

federated TL: a wild frontier of all the posts from every instance yours communicates with. the dark souls of mastodon

tips for newcomers

follow, boost and fave all you like! we don't care about follow ratios and faves are private. go hog wild!

boosting your own posts is 100% ok. no shame. the TL is chronological, so there's no algorithm to fight.

please do use CWs. if in doubt, use one just to be safe.

hashtags are your friends and really the only effective way to search for posts. be sure to use them to maximize your reach.

don't be afraid to engage. dumping pictures is fine but stay and chat a bit too!
