Forum game: Tricky brain workout

Dear users, dear authors,
another game. This one is a challenge, but I’m sure you can do it.

Here’s how it works:
One person gives a word, and the next user / author writes down a word that fits it.
Watch out: The matching word must have six letters. Not three, not four, not seven—only six letters.
And the word must begin with the last letter of the previous word.
This could get tricky. Great brain training. It keeps you young.

The first word:
shears: fitting for the craft forum
The second word:
single
: You can only cut fabric a single time, so use the shears carefully

so we are looking for: a word starting with E that fits the topics mentioned above.
Your turn.

Laptop... that’s where I’ve saved my sewing patterns, and I always need them for sewing and cutting fabric correctly

Pompom - perfect for a nice pompom or for crafting animals, maybe also as a little tail for an amigurumi...

Sewing... I taught myself, and I even write my own patterns for it under the name “Frollein Nähfein” :)

Annoying—at least for me; I’m not very good at this.

Thinking — sometimes you do have to, whether you’re knitting, crocheting, or sewing. ;-)

“einmal”—just once; don’t insert the needle into the stitch twice.

Sorry, my mistake—I slipped into the wrong thread… (Guess I’m not quite awake yet?)

Reading

is especially enjoyable from the comfort of an armchair

War nun "Sessel" das letzte richtige Wort?

Ich mach da mal weiter

- Sessel -

Lampen - Sie mögen alles hell erleuchten, damit ich meine Maschen gut sehen kann.

nervös.         -      kann man beim Musterstricken oder häkeln manchmal                                   werden.

Marker—you have to place one while knitting so you can find the start of the pattern again.

Rounds - the pattern can also be knitted this way.

Teasing — something you sometimes have to put up with when something still doesn’t work out properly on the umpteenth attempt.

nothing — you don’t let it bother you and simply try again.
