What are you working on this week? I'm crocheting a mesh grocery bag for fresh produce and knitting myself a jumper on the side.
I have to repair my beloved patchwork plaid but I haven't found an assorted piece of textile yet. I still plan to learn to sew with a machine but that means attending a sewing class.
I'm working on a two metre long muffler with crochet stitch.

Sorry, I meant brioche stitch.
Knitting seems kinda gay.

Knitting is the absolute Chad hobby.
Brioche stitch sounds a little rude, honestly.

It's highly stretchy and soft. An ideal replacement for ribbed patterns that need some more positive ease. It's a bit tricky at first but soon becomes muscle memory, not to mention it's rather forgiving too.
(Note: If you rip a few rows of brioche and put the needles back in; you'll need to flip each yarn-over on the row. I don't know if Continental style has this problem though.)
I found a sort-of manlier stitch for you: fisherman's rib. Unravel the brioche and do that.
I've used fisherman's rib before — it does look and feel exactly like brioche stitch, but I find brioche to be easier to work.
Is it me or the word "brioche" seems to appear more than usually these days?

Probably a case of Baader-Meinhof phenomenon.

Also known as Brioche Syndrome.
I'm hungry now...
It's highly stretchy and soft.
Just like my anus
Sewed a patch of heavy canvas into the bottom of my backpack. Hopefully things will stop falling out now.
It's funny how there are 600 patterns in my Ravelry library, and yet I keep using free patterns.
I once wrote a library to turn any image in a cross stitch tapestry model. You could choose DMC or Anchor color codes. I wanted to make a web service but I'm sure there are already plenty.

Make one anyway. I'd be interested. Sounds like it'd be a good exercise too.
I've been thinking about making a knitting pattern DSL in Racket for a while.
After having to use circular needles for a while, I can say that they're overrated. Double pointed needles are easily adjustable (3, 4, 5 needles at a time) and comfortable with no need for 'magic loop' tricks. If you're scared of your stitches falling off DPNs, just use stoppers.
I make carbon-fibre weaved kevlar
Is Ink/Stich any good?

I use a sewing machine
Why don't knitting enthusiasts build an automated loom that is able to produce embroidery designs that are encoded in a domain-specific language?
I'm starting to do hyperbolic crochet
is that like when someone masturbates very fast
"domain-specific language"
what is this, and what does it have to do with crochet?
crocheting is a language. it's a language of garmentry
it's a language of geometry.
sacred geometry, bro.
i only speak dubz
i only speek muffled gasps in the pink'st of muffs. gargle your saltwater.
