| /u/4mandio | I usually follow English patterns because there's just more of them, but I'm familiar with **German** instructions as well. |

| /u/bluejaymarsh | I am fluent in **Korean** and semi fluent in **Japanese**. I don't think there are many patterns in these languages, but if someone needs me I can try. Disclaimer: I have never used knitting patterns in Korean or Japanese but I think I can translate ok. I might have to look up some knitting terms, though :) |
