Bonjour je suis Andrea

Andrea

Hi all!

I’m so excited to be here and be able to meet all of you! Unfortunately my French is a bit rusty and although I can understand a bit, I’m not fluent speaking it.

I’m Andrea, I’m living ing Germany but originally am from Mexico. I’ve been knitting for a few years now and crocheting for almost 20 years. Knitting is definitely my favorite hobby and I love to explore new yarn stores, knit festivals and meet knit friends as well! :)

Aurelie

Hi Andrea !

It's nice to meet you to!

My english is a bit rusty as well, but I understood everything you said.

On my side, I've tried crochet and sewing, but knitting is really my favorite hobby, even though I'm not a big fan of working with summer yarns .

Andrea welcome here Andrea! That might be the perfect place to refresh your French if you wanted to, but I really want this space to work for both French and English speakers ☺️

Hallo Andrea, nice to meet you!
I guess we'll be happy to speak both French and English (and maybe German !) so that most of the group can contribute easily. I think we have an option in the menu to choose our language, I hope it will translate our French mumblings into well cooked English for you, too!

Apolonnie

Lao the switch is just for the forum's interface, no message is translated (which is why I have the language tags to identify a thread's main language and allow people to filter if they want to) 😅

Lao

Apolonnie My baaad! We will also need to speak both languages for our international fellow knitters ♥️ Is it relevant to write both in each message according to you?

Apolonnie

Lao that seems a bit heavy to me, but if you feel like doing that go for it! I will probably just follow the discussion's main language and reply to message in the same language they were written in :)

Andrea

Apolonnie @Lao @Aurelie nice to meet you all :)

I like the tag options, it gives a quick overview of the language before clicking on the thread.

I’ve read a few threads in French, and so far I have been able to understand Most of it. But in any case my phone allows me to translate without having to open the translation app :) I’ll try to join with my rusty French whenever possible but you can count me in for all the English threads ❤️
