Twitter is trying something new. They are testing virtual knitting circles. This is a new feature inside the app. It lets people connect over knitting. Users can share their knitting projects. They can also chat about patterns and yarns. People can join these groups based on interests.

The company announced this test today. They said it is a small experiment. Only some users can see it right now. Twitter wants to see if people like it. They might roll it out more widely later.

The virtual knitting circles work like this. Users can create a circle. They can invite others to join. Everyone in the circle can post photos. They can share tips and ask questions. The conversation stays within the circle. It is not public on the main timeline.

Twitter hopes this feature builds community. Knitting fans often gather in real life. Twitter thinks people want this online too. The company wants to offer more than just text posts. They are exploring different ways to connect.

Some users in the test group like it. “It’s fun to see what others are making,” said one person. “I found a new pattern already.” Another user said it felt friendly. “It’s less noisy than the main feed,” they explained. “We just talk knitting.”

Other users are unsure. They worry about another feature to learn. “It seems nice,” one person said. “But will it last?” Twitter is watching the feedback closely. The test will run for a few weeks.
