Cuddle Party

[ysabetwordsmith]

Everyone needs contact comfort sometimes. Not everyone has ample opportunities for this in facetime. So here is a chance for a cuddle party in cyberspace. Virtual cuddling can help people feel better.

We have a cuddle room that comes with fort cushions, fort frames, sheets for draping, and a weighted blanket. A nest full of colorful egg pillows sits in one corner. There is a basket of grooming brushes, hairbrushes, and styling combs. A bin holds textured pillows. There is a big basket of craft supplies along with art markers, coloring pages, and blank paper. The kitchen has a popcorn machine. Labels are available to mark dietary needs, recipe ingredients, and level of spiciness. Here is the bathroom, open to everyone. There is a lawn tent and an outdoor hot tub. Bathers should post a sign for nude or clothed activity. Come snuggle up!

Well, some of the manipulations can be a bit tricky. But I got the hang of it by understanding it as practice related to the two fundamental theoretical principles:

1. You must separate the layers before changing the stitch count;
2. Stitch count must change in both layers simultaneously.

Each manipulation concentrates on one thing or the other, and putting them together into yarn moves create the fundamental building blocks.

Me too. What the instructor worked out is a long way away from where I am as a knitter right now.
