I have bought a second hand knitting machine. And it was a PROCESS I tell you.

I bought a yarn subscription for 3 months, to soothe my tired soul, and as a treat for surviving a truly wretched march. Wich will be 3600m in hand and plant dyed yarn. (Below the first of three months and the pattern that started my need for a knitting machine)

Of course I have to see if the yarns to that well together. But also that is a pattern for a passap knitting machine.

So my hunt for a knitting machine started!

First I found one by "brother" complete with pattern magazines and FUCKING PUNCH CARDS . I wanted that one so bad. But we're talking about 270 bucks and I got scammed before so I asked if I can use PayPal business instead of family and pay a bit more so he doesn't loose any money, because I got scammed before and thats a lot of money. And he was PISSED . How DARE me accuse him of being a scammer, his reviews are STELLAR (well, so where the ones of the scammer?)

So no brother for me.

Then I found a Passap! For FREE! But no shipping (now that I have one I understand, it's a heavy creature, and things could get broken easily if you're not careful)

But she lived way to far away.

WAIT her husband travels a lot because of his work maybe he can bring it some day! BUT we are to far south...

So no free Passap for me.

The I Found TWO machines! One for 250 completely with everything AND prodigal package from 1968! 1h drive from us! Husband already said he'll drive! Parallel I wrote with someone who has a Passap for 80,- in my city! That I could have visited and looked at the machine! I wrote with both, had a lovely Saturday and then had a mental breakdown... So at 2 in the night I wrote both, that I can't buy them, because reasons. I felt very terrible... (Especially because I basically wrote the woman 8h before we came that we won't make it...)

I couldn't stop thinking about the machine though, but felt deeply ashamed how I handled everything ... BUT

I wrote the lady with the 1h drive that I talked to the husband, and that we decluttered, and if she gives me a chance I REALLY like the Passap, for real this time!

And she was absolute incredible and kind 🥹🥹🥹

So, fast forward yesterday evening we got itnto the car, and needed 70 minutes JUST THROUGH THE CITY the whole ride in total should have taken 50min!!!! At this point I truly believed this project cursed!!

BUT. It worked out, I gifted her some chocolate as a thank you for dealing with my sorry ass, she went down with the price a bit, and BEHOLD

A knitting machine

Took some time to figure out where to place her, and even longer to figure out how to work her... But, we're getting used to each other!

So there is a happy end!

Bonus story: it's her father's machine, and later in live, before he died, he knitted only socks with her. She had some tears in her eyes when we took her (said my husband) I feel really honored that I'm able to give her a second live :')

Bayonetta was super fun and I'm honestly surprised that there were so many things that were still fresh for me despite it being a 13 year old game that so many of you have talked about extensively. I've even played as her in smash but her representation there is barely a shadow of the actual gameplay. Things that were fresh for me(if you're like I was and haven't played the game yet but plan to then skip this post):

The combat system. Smash really does not come close to how fun it actually is. Shooting out of combos? Wicked weaves? Witch time? The overall smoothness of it? All amazing and unparalleled by any other game in this genre(yes even DMC5)

The weapons. No one told me she gets a sword!! She gets rocket launchers she can put on her feet!! ROCKET LAUNCHERS on her FEET. Laser guns???? A LIGHTSABER.

The story and cutscenes. I already knew a good amount of it because it's a decade-old game and some of it was obvious (the baby Cereza hints were super heavy-handed lol). Nonetheless, I still enjoyed it from the start to the finish. I cried a little when Bayonetta put baby Cereza back in the past and gave her that little talk and I got chills when Jeanne saved Bayonetta at the end(The unbrainwashed delivery of "Our left eye, our precious left eye will NEVER fall into the hands of another. It is the pride of the Umbra Witches!" and "I am here to reclaim my Umbran sister!" go so hard 🥹). It's also very camp in the best ways; I never got tired of Luka(who shares a voice actor with Sasuke Uchiha👁️👄👁️) and Jeanne surviving in the most impossible ways.

The music slaps hard.🎶 FLY ME TO THE MOON AND LET ME PLAY AMONG THE STARS🎶

There were some parts where the age showed like the piss filter, a few bugs and the two fuck you stages (driving stage and flying stage, my beloathed) but all in all it's an incredibly stylish game and definitely one of my favorites, if not my favorite.
