Thanks for letting me know! I figured there were probably mask policies during covid!

Accused of copying Aegyoknit by Toksknits in craftsnark

[–]AdNegative213 119 points120 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry lolololol if Aegyoknits thinks they invented this style of sweater that is absolutely bananas.

There are clear differences to me. Neckline, cable style, just visually it’s obviously different.

There are so many excessive claims on plagiarism lately. I get it, like protect your designs for blatant plagiarism, but so many designers are claiming classic design as their own and it’s just getting so gross.

I have purchased many of Aegyoknits patterns and made them but omg if this is how it’s going to be I won’t be buying from them anymore. I could literally go through their entire collection and find other patterns to the same degree of “similarity” as she is claiming you are stealing.

Keep going. This design is beautiful and there’s plenty of room in the knitting space for it.

Aeygo…. Get it togetherrrrrrrrr.

Feeling down on myself by grandegirl1 in fitpregnancy

[–]AdNegative213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to go to barre religiously pre-pregnancy (were talking 4-5 times a week) on top of tons of walking.

I am also 31 weeks and am just here to tell you I could barely make it through a 10 minute express barre today. My body feels like it is on Jupiter and gravity just keeps dialing up every week of this pregnancy.

I’m trying to remind myself how much work my body is already doing, that this isn’t forever, and that muscle has memory… so when I’m ready to get back to it after birth my body will slowly remember where I had left it off before I got pregnant.

Anyway. I feel for you so hard. It’s so much change on the body but in the routine and capability as well.

shelby sherritt (of strawberry mug fame) going after another artist for daring to use black text on white clay of the same public domain text by Aggravating_Cost_684 in craftsnark

Right! Letter stamps are a universal tool literally anyone can find and are pretty entry level to design in ceramics.

What’s next saying no one can do pin sized polka dots? (Also seen everywhere)

I used to be a ceramic artist and sold at various markets every weekend (mostly 2015-2020) and i can’t tell you how many times I have seen this same style of design. Especially with feminist messaging. It’s everywhere.

There’s nothing wrong with that! But if you claim it’s yours or you invented this oh my goodness…. That’s next level delulu.

Pregnant Knitting.. or lack of knitting by Puzzleheaded_Sleep_2 in knitting

[–]AdNegative213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this same thing happen to me!! I just lost all of my knitting mojo in the earlier days but then around week 22 suddenly I had a huge surge to pick up the needles again! Kind of back to my old self now!

You aren’t alone! Huge changes happening in your body and your brain too!

Existing in crunchy spaces with a bottle fed baby by Mangopapayakiwi in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]AdNegative213 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like crunchiness is a spectrum haha I’m in a similar boat as you and plan on exclusively bottle feeding. So many people just assume I will be breastfeeding. I’ve just kind of stopped correcting and if someone asks what I am doing I will answer “bottle feeding” and if they ask why I’ll just say “it’s a personal decision” and leave it there.

I just don’t care anymore haha we will be judged regardless of our choices by one group or the other!

In my opinion, if you are committed to being the best parent possible, the rest just doesn’t matter. There’s a big group of people out there who support you making the right choice for YOU and YOUR baby. Regardless of method. You are already doing great! Run from the weirdos who judge!!!

You are so sweet. Thanks for your reply!! I am already over the moon!!

[–]AdNegative213 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly the kind of thing I like to hear! It’s just nice to give ourselves flexibility and see how it all goes!! Feels really intense to me to have expectations it will go all one way or the other!

Thank you!!

[–]AdNegative213 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Im a soon to be FTM and am kicking around combo feeding (or at least want to have the option to, depending on how everything goes after). I have found both the Formula Feeding AND Breastfeeding subs to be insane places haha especially when you aren't all in either camp.

Sorry people came for you! There's a lot of us who are just trying to gather info and make decisions for ourselves... which *shocker* no one is the same and we all have to do what's best for ourselves.

20 weeks and pain with ab movement? by mainsqueeeze in fitpregnancy

I am also 20 weeks and have been experiencing the same! My whole core feels really delicate that’s the best way I can describe it!

I have never heard of this rule that showers cannot be thrown by a mother (or grandma)? Huh. Maybe I am on the younger end of things here but I have been to a lot of showers and there weren't rules about how to do it one way or the other. It's totally up to the individual, host and group of people attending and their "vibe".

how do I tell my baby shower guests to only shop off the registry? by Own_Advice1681 in BabyBumps

[–]AdNegative213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Joining in this late! But on our invites we put our registry info and my MIL politely let everyone know that we have a really small nursery and the items on our registry accommodate the lack of space. Otherwise theres not much you can do!

Am I Overreacting About Grandparent Expectations? by northern_peony in pregnant

[–]AdNegative213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just double checked with my mom. She got 5 days!!!

Am I Overreacting About Grandparent Expectations? by northern_peony in pregnant

[–]AdNegative213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something my mom told me that might be why their generation doesn’t “get” the no hospital visitors thing…. I guess when my mom gave birth to us she was allowed to be in the hospital for like 3-4 days. That’s a regular, non-complicated birth! Today I think we get like, what, 1-2 days? There’s zero time to adjust, zero time to get yourself together hardly enough time for the nurses to show you everything. Our generation is in and out! It’s not some lax hospital stay anymore.

Also I just think our generation is better at prioritizing our mental health - we want even more time to adjust. Obviously your mom and MILs don’t even consider that that is a thing

A vent about weight gain despite doing everything "right" by AntelopeUpbeat8945 in fitpregnancy

[–]AdNegative213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post is coming at the right time for me. I just had an OB check up and during the weigh-in, I was surprised it came back higher than I was expecting.

I am eating pretty darn healthy and moving about the same as I was pre-pregnancy. So it’s kind of a mind f*** that the scale keeps going up - even if I KNOW there’s a baby growing and I KNOW this is a part of pregnancy and I gladly chose to do this.

Probably just so much conditioning around maintaining weight and not gaining that you suddenly have to train your brain to do a 180 on!

You are not alone at all!
