I started knitting specifically with this project in mind and was so happy once I was able to make it.

Highly inappropriate comment in a knitting post, you mongoloid.
Way to tell them they’re being inappropriate… With a racial slur. Smh
Thanks for letting me know. I thought it was equivalent to “Neanderthal” but just looked it up. I won’t use it again.
Hell yeah. If it makes you feel better your not the only one to have incorrectly thought that.
What on earth was the word?
Detectives assemble! Something that could be confused as similar to Neanderthal, but isn’t. I’m guessing mongoloid?
What was the word? Now I want to know so I don’t accidentally use it.
Look a little lower in the thread at positiveWHAT’s comment.
And I was about to comment I felt relieved to no langer have horny redditors around lmao
Some of us are horny, but don’t write unnecessary horny comments.
Stay on Reddit you perv.
So disheartening that even on a smaller community with a supposedly mature userbase there are still people that think it’s normal to leave comments like this. The number of upvotes you received does not inspire confidence in the fediverse community to be any better than Reddit.
Nothing stops bad actors from joining a lemmy, his total votes is still negative which is a good tell it’s not being tolerated.
The latter remark was very unnecessary, too.
It was amazing before I noticed the owls. The owls made it perfect. Pure art.
Hi. I am not familiar with knitting at all. May I ask why you feel it’s not perfect? Just trying to understand if it’s a personal opinion or actual fault somewhere (that I don’t see).
I’m probably my own worst critic, but I guess some spots don’t look as “polished” or “neat” to me as I’d like. Some of the ribbing on the neck collar looks a little uneven. It’s just small things that are probably more noticeable to me than anyone else. Also, it was only the 2nd sweater I ever knit, so I’m self-conscious about how good my work looks to anyone else.
Don’t be so harsh on yourself, it’s awesome! The imperfections are the perfect level that will make another knitter go “Oh wow that’s selfmade. So cool!” while other people won’t notice them at all. Really nice work!
I haven’t zoomed in or anything but I couldn’t notice anything wrong or particularly un-neat. It just looks handmade to me. Nice work!
I’m probably my own worst critic
Said every creative ever.
There’s always little things we notice in our own projects that are basically invisible to the non-knitter. It’s our curse!
It took me awhile to see that they’re owls, but damn I’d kill for that during winter right now.
Absolutely love this. The buttons at the top also make for a nice detailing contrast.
Oh, I love this so much! You’ve done a great job. Also, thank you for sharing the pattern. Once I’ve had enough of sock knitting I want to make this!
Congratulations on your project! I’m just starting my knitting journey as well, with a pullover as the end goal. How long was it before you felt comfortable tackling the project? The color is lovely! (Also, your hair is stunning, if you don’t mind could you dm me your hair routine?!)
Wow, that looks really good. Great work.
Awesome! The owl pattern around the top looks really cool.
It looks great, and you look great in it! Nice work 👍
Love it! I saw the owls straight away!
You had me to go back and find them, really nice!
Fucking doooope! More crafts to Lemmy!!! Hazaaah
I’d say perfect…
That’s so beautiful! Perfect yarn colour too.
considering she said it’s her 2nd ever jumper, she did a really good job. I’m not even a knitter, but it looks really good!
I thought it was a Groot sweater until I read the pattern URL. Looks cool!
