    Engineering knits is a place for people who enjoy all kinds of vintage and antique crafts - from sewing to knitting, crochet to embroidery I like to try it all. I definitely have a preference for historical fibre crafts, and it is my dream to one day make an entire outfit from sheep to sweater. I hope you enjoy watching me and my favorite companion, Nutella, struggle through some fascinating projects!

    Merry Christmas. I'd heard that in Northern Europe, people have individual blankets/duvets, sounds so much more comfortable than sharing bedding 🎍🎄✨

    • @infamoussphere7228
      @infamoussphere7228 Před rokem +3

      my Finnish wife has converted me to it! It's way better - instead of one queen sized doona/duvet you have two single doonas. I didn't quite understand the sheet thing because afaik you still have the one sheet on the bed, and two doonas in their doona covers. It means nobody steals each other's blankets and imo fixes 99.9% of the things people complain about when it comes to sharing a bed

    • @misss7777

      @@infamoussphere7228 Two people sharing the same blanket sounds like an awful idea indeed. As a German that's really something I've never seen around here but I think this isn't popular anywhere in Europe at all. About the sheet - maybe she is also used to two different matresses for her an her partner? It is normal for double beds in Europe that require a matress that is wider than 1,60m to be filled with two separate matresses instead of one single one. This is also popular, because each partner can chose their perfect matress insted of having to compromise. It's also quite comon to use elastic jersey sheets in Europe, the other ones seem quite old fashioned to us...

    Merry Christmas! This year, I've been watching various vlogmases from the southern hemisphere where it's insanely hot and doesn't feel as festive somehow. Your craftmas series has been my favorite for interesting and cozy content! I love all the different crafts you do, and I'm so glad you're sharing your German traditions!

    • @infamoussphere7228

      I had my first white Christmas at my wife's house in Finland last year and it was a really strange experience because it was both novel (as I'm used to hot Australian Christmas) and familiar, since I've seen it so much in popular culture. I personally think 30 degree weather feels very Christmassy! If it's Christmas here and it's like, 18 c it just doesn't feel right. But a lot of the Christmas traditions make way more sense as a winter festival - at least in my experience Australians don't put as much effort into an elaborate Christmas affair because when it's summery weather you don't need to brighten up the gloom of a long winter. I'm moving to Finland in a couple of months. The Christmas traditions can't really be unified between Australia and Finland very much although I might be doing my best to change up some of the food! (Finnish Christmas food is...uh, not my favourite. Sorry Finns.)

      @@infamoussphere7228 Growing up in the US, a white Christmas was fairly common for me, and my parents went BIG on the Christmas decorations (both inside and outside) so coming to South America where the celebrations are more about family and togetherness and one long party, with Christmas being the excuse not the central part, is very interesting for me. I've not done Christmas in Australia yet, but it's on my list! I was curious whether Australia has adapted any of the Christmas imagery for the hot weather, like Santa in board shorts, sunnies, and thongs?

      @@LadyRed31 I wonder if it's a regional thing. Or we all do whatever our parents did. My mom always said to use a sheet to keep the blankets clean. (Shrug) It sure would be a great source for fabric if I didn't use them. 😁

      In Northern Europe, people like to use two duvets. So the bedding set-up is: fitted sheet, two European sized pillows (26" * 26") and two duvets with covers. No need for the flat sheet, which can be used for sewing projects! :-)
