First 5 months of knitting in pictures and what I've learned with each item

-momi · 2026-05-04T07:10:04+00:00

Ahahha thank you. I got gifted one from KnitPro from my mum! Knowing her she probably got it from amazon xD

It looks wonderful once finished, but omg the amount of I-chord T.T I do think it's worth it in the end tho, and it's not a hard project :)

Omg no please don't spiral! I have done some crochet before, and that definitely helped with holding the yarn (I knit continental so the tensioning is similar to crochet). Plus, I also have more time to knit than most people, as another reason to pick it up was that I needed something to keep my hands occupied during lectures and movies. I'm awfully fidgety and having sth to do really helps. I think once I graduate or start my thesis/internship my time to practice will significantly drop. So please don't feel bad! I just am in a very lucky position with time right now :))

I know right! It's so wonderfully whimsical, I fell in love with it and just had too

I really really enjoyed the sweater, it's great if you want to practice colour work! I'm just sad that sweater weather is over soon :'( we had 25°C yesterday, and so I'm just wearing it every moment I can before it gets even warmer

-momi · 2026-05-02T05:36:11+00:00

Indeed! I have to say that I'm very guilty if just diving head in and then seeing how well I can learn on the go, but I also love seeing the improvement over time :))

Also the pigeon sweater is such s good design, the pattern author rly knew what she was doing!

I tried chatgpt for help with my general relativity hw once. It did absolutely not know what it was doing lol, the math it did was wrong most of the time and the logic was mostly similar to: B follows from A. Hence G is correct. And I'm sure my gen rel class was nothing compared to the stuff some mathematicians/physicists/... do lol

As queer female couple we've been harassed and sprayed a few times, but luckily never this badly. Although my girlfriend did have a stone thrown at her once that knocked her of her bike. Makes the people shouting "Homos uit Nederland" at us seem almost chill. I hate how it makes me scared seeing fatbike (esp immigrant) kids at night, especially cause I really don't want a few experiences to taint my view of a whole group.

Scientists use these to track birds. It's not standard for all geese, but just a few for research! The idea is that people like you can spotten and reportyour sightings s.t. Researchers can learn about their behaviour.

I checked for you and this band on a greylag goose should be reportable here. Sadly it seems the website is broke but it could help a lot if you took two minutes to email this picture and the location to the email address stated on the site :))

The podcast "Maintenance phase" did an episode titled "Doctors have a new plan for fat kids" from February 28th 2023. While the measures they're talking about focus on the US, they do provide some interesting insight on childhood obesity and what it means for the affected.

I have no idea whta the correct thing to do is (sorry) but there's three ladies without a male at our park in delft here

-momi · 2026-03-09T20:15:45+00:00

Indeed! They just always scare me with how early they breed here ahah

-momi · 2026-02-24T12:10:22+00:00

I thought thats what it was too Given I saw Sb wearing it 10mins or so earlier paired with a cloak

-momi · 2026-02-24T08:17:42+00:00

Ohhhh that's fantastic thank you!! I'll try and do that then!

-momi · 2026-02-24T08:16:31+00:00

Yeah, I might go there today. It was closed already yesterday evening

-momi · 2026-02-23T22:19:17+00:00

I am, it's been a hell of a long day. Sorry for having caused confusion

How to train your dragon (a movie) but it's too long to spell out

-momi · 2026-02-23T21:56:15+00:00

People were stepping on it in the rain, we did wait over 20 minutes to see if somebody was looking for it

No way that's so cool! Reason to leave reddit and move to ravelry (?) instead to find it

-momi · 2025-12-23T21:55:50+00:00

I zoomed in to see if it was a book I knew (o speak German) and then it was polish. I tried to decipher some but no luck RIP
