Sarvi posted an update in the group Cooking and Baking 10 years ago

Any boulangers in the house? I spent a lot of time cultivating my sourdough starter last year, but killed it as it seemed to be the only way to stop myself eating two loaves of bread a week.

Hello and welcome! I’m in the middle of a big parcel of work right now but I’m knitting away at this:

I really enjoyed your description @brenda1652. Our stock is far more at risk of dehydration and bush fires.

Ooh, consider binding the arm holes, it gives a lovely finish.
