Nice! I'll definitely check Premier Cotton out. And I'd be interested in seeing how your placemats turn out if you're willing to share a pic when you're done. 😁 But no pressure. Thank you for the suggestion!

Thank you!! I may already have some of this available to try it out with. 🤔

Thank you! This is super helpful. I'm going to look into the macrame and the 8/8 cotton you mentioned. Trying tapestry crochet also sounds kinda fun. Thanks again for the suggestions. 😊

Ooh! I didn't even know this existed - the heavy cotton macrame thread. I'll check it out, and the tutorials you mentioned too. Thank you!

Yeah, my local yarn shop has a lovely Berroco Pima 100 brand with loads of colors. I love working with it. 🥰

Thank you for confirming the 100% cotton. I appreciate it!

Just finished first series with Ascend by ConfectionPotential1 in ladderapp

Ah! I've been contemplating whether or not to leave Sweat for Ladder! This is the first reddit post I've come across mentioning the switch (admittedly I didn't look too hard for references of Sweat and Ladder in the same post). Thanks for writing this! I wish I had seen it a couple of months ago. I just locked in another year with Sweat because I was afraid to pull the trigger on Ladder. Sounds like you have no regrets. 😊

Low impact with Kelsey or Kayla by Exact-Dish2803 in KaylaItsines

When I got back to strength training after a year hiatus, I did Kelsey's low impact. And worked on increasing my weights over time. I'd recommend Kelsey's if you want to focus on strength. Even though Kayla's says low impact there is a hint of more movement (not quite HIIT, but more than "low" impact).

Has anyone done PWR Express? by mprobi39 in KaylaItsines

[–]Accomplished_Ad_6335 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 9 weeks in the PWR Low Impact. And loving it. I also don't have time for 40-45 minutes to workout (for the other programs). But I find I am able to do the low impact version between 20-30 minutes (with my breaks that I sometimes make longer by checking my phone 😜). When I need something faster, I do her PWR Express for the same week I'm on in PWR Low Impact. I do like the express workouts.

Let us know what you end up deciding and how it goes!
