We've been watching a TV show called "Game of Wool - Britain's Best Knitter". Episodes include both traditional knitting and crochet tasks.*

What do you think of this?

*there's also a lot of good sheep footage. Yesterday they crafted an outfit for dogs but what I really hope for is a challenge crafting a Sci-fi inspired outfit for sheep.

Just received a DM asking if I'm purposely stirring up shit. Answer is no. This is honest curiosity.

This (https://mastodon.online/@Pepijn/115733964554164313) was referenced, where I also was not in any way trying to stir up shit.

Just a lot about the internal inconsistencies and worries about the participants getting paid for the pattern kits.

At times rather hilarious..

There should never be discourse on that.

Yup. Season one.

Well, can't say I am surprised. The other judge is female, though.

Season 1 has DISCOURSE in the fiber community. (I’m assuming it’s season 1 actually as that has dog outfits.)

I found it quite upsetting because knitting on a deadline is physically unhealthy, and the rubrics as presented in the show were totally unclear, which made the judging appear extremely biased. But maybe the participants did get clear rubrics and it was just considered too boring to mention it.

Two seasons of UK TV, at least one (very bad) Dutch one. I watched the UK ones and kinda liked it. Let's just say it's entertaining watching the group work with the model trains more of a setting than the goal.

No one will ever wear/use any of it.

Knitting on a clock is so uninteresting. They should’ve made it more like the Made in Denmark series where designers get several weeks (could be days, though) to make something.

Who am I to critique what you do for entertainment*?

What counts is that you found something you both enjoy watching, right?

*Ok, fine, I do this all the time but usually not out loud and it's very much a live and let live thing, isn't it.

Why haven't I seen them?

(It's fine with me, I even watched it a bit, as the wife was watching it. Occasionally was even quite exciting to see how the contestants did or did not manage to do their assigned task.)

Unfortunately the borky redesign of .online has an error where the moment you touch the "lengt of poll" selector it toggles to 5 minutes. So I left it at the default of one day.
