Love the cardigan! I keep all those bits with the intention on knitting up catnip mice for our spca. Our 4 will be testers of whether i've got the right amount of 'nip and twirly tail things for fun.
Good for you using a machine - i believe a top loader is pretty similar to hand wash and in SA you can use hand wash powder in a top loaders. My front loader has a wool cycle - if you can set speed and temp the try 800rpm with 30°C (i think thats 80ish in freedom units?)
Guage swatching. Eish (south africanism). I'm teaching myself crochet after knitting for ages. I found very quickly with the crochet trying to make hexis not curling, that no matter how loose i went it didn’t help. Only, it took me ages and i couldnt go on auto pilot if you know what i mean. I've also realised that i didnt know how much crochet needs blocking. I knit blankets, so dont block and the only blocking i knew of was just drying jerseys flat between 2 towels. I want to knit myself a cardigan in cotton one day... and i don't think I'd guage, because my knitting im totally auto pilot and to change my tension would be hell. Plus, everyone says i have very even good tension, so i dont want to interfere with the universe on that front. I'd use the recommended size needles and if that looks wrong, frog and change needles.
In general, I don't think the intention of gauge swatching is to change your tension. But to find the correct needle or hook size to meet the same measurements that the designer had. However, sometimes, it just doesn't work out, and is more frustrating in the end. So I get it, if you don't do it.
That is really cool that you donate for the kitties.
For cosy and possibly co-op look at Dinkum. I like it because Aus and SA share quite a bit of slang and food. Plus i can relate to the biomes James used.
Medieval dynasty is co op. You only need to use a bow and arrow or spear for "shooting".
For an adorable form of sudoku look at sudocats. I'm a crazy cat lady, so little kitty, big city is on my radar, and quilts and cats of calico (,i believe its a board game made into a pc game) i havent bought it yet, but id love to do quilting and love cats obs. Then the people/cats that developed sudocats have another game called cats and boxes which i just want because those characters are cute! Lol. Hence still on my wishlist.
The Quilting Cat game, I do have, and I enjoyed. I have seen little kitty, big city, and I am sitting on the fence on that one. I will look at Dinkum again, that one did interest me at one point. I am remembering that name. Thank you so much for the suggestions!
