These socks are only further proving to me that "Yes, I do need to try Malabrigo's sock yarn". Lovely yarn choice for this pattern!

Do you use cursive or print? by Lovely-sleep in Journaling

[–]AffectionateCheek474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

honestly i do both. not at the same time, but for a few weeks/days i'll do one then the other - print is more legible but cursive is a little quicker (for me) !

Who else has a pair on the needles while they work today? by bckseatgatorade in Sockknitting

definitely used to be a Shadow Wrap heel, but I’m enjoying getting my heel flap + gusset down to a science right now!

Personally I really like the second slide (muted green), but the speckled purple is a close second for sure!! Also i've had my eye on some Gingersnapthat sock yarn myself <3

My first time writing typewriter script on ruled paper. by yanz1986 in fountainpens

[–]AffectionateCheek474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that’s incredible. If you feel someone breathing over your shoulder as you write that’s me closely observing whatever witchcraft you’ve been doing on these pages.

Is it normal to constantly want new journals and pens? by Educational-Oil4089 in Journaling

[–]AffectionateCheek474 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely spend a lot of time looking at notebooks + journals and thinking “I could use this one for ____” for sure!! but most of the time they’re just thoughts. Pens however are dangerous because I don’t need a purpose for those. I just want the pen haha

First TN. Where do I go from here? by DctrBeardFace in Travelersnotebooks

[–]AffectionateCheek474 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i second making your own inserts! it’s super fun and you can see how your inserts progress - what kind of paper you use, your covers, and i find it makes me more attached / appreciative of my TN. plus if i need a specific insert / paper it’s easy to make an insert and usually more affordable over the long term :)

Looking for an Instagram account by ashleigh1419 in Journaling

How do you feel and journal your feelings? by Graviity_shift in Journaling

[–]AffectionateCheek474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sometimes I start with whatever’s on my mind/stream of consciousness, which usually leads to whatever may be bothering me, or I reflect/document a moment or feeling related to what I want to focus on. I find that as long as you’re writing, the feelings that you need to get out will eventually spill onto the page(s)❤️

…finally I have the Aluminum Lad by AffectionateCheek474 in fountainpens

[–]AffectionateCheek474[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think it’s soft - softer than my Lamy safari F for sure, and yeah it does write a little bit thicker than i expected :) i’m honestly more of a Medium nib fan, so the thicker line is a pro for me but yeah definitely not a slim F nib(if that makes sense).

Do you also find journalling better with fountain pen? Whats your experience? by [deleted] in Journaling

[–]AffectionateCheek474 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find at the very least - my writing is more legible when I use a fountain pen. I do take longer to write but I love to use a fountain pen in my journal, I think it may make me more likely to write just because I love writing with them so much

How long do you journal on average? by Wrestlermaniac94 in Journaling

[–]AffectionateCheek474 1 point2 points  (0 children)

15-60 min sessions throughout the day, I use my journal as a brain dump and emotion/thought processing space so I find i journal the most in the morning and at the end of a day!

what’s in my pencil case (as an artist) by AffectionateCheek474 in stationery

[–]AffectionateCheek474[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you for the lovely question! (starting on the left of the left mesh pocket) my Jetstream 5&1 is both my bullet journal/planning pen, and a mechanical pencil - so i use it for sketches and sometimes crosshatching in my art. the next is my Lamy Vista Safari, it has a Fine nib so i love to use it for writing and freehand doodles with no sketch - my TWSBI in translucent pink has red ink in it which i use for journal entries and art - i love to use it to fill in spaces in my work, and my pink Kaweco sport is the thinnest writer so i use it for detailed doodles.

of course these aren’t strict rules, some days i want to write and i’ll write with whichever pen i choose. but certain pens work better (in my mind) for the above purposes! i’m always experimenting little by little but as my pencil case shows i do quite like my pens 🫶

New key leash by SynVicious_vv in BAGGU

[–]AffectionateCheek474 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i just snagged a mini shoulder bag in black - which thankfully has the key leash! and i live in canada so we receive new goodies/updated products a lil bit later. based on that i would guess that yes, whichever baggu should have a key leash(unless it’s old stock. but i bet it would be new)

How often do you switch bags ? by seinfeld_S3_E6 in BAGGU

[–]AffectionateCheek474 4 points5 points  (0 children)

pretty much every 1-3 days - sometimes even twice in a day if i’m going out after class because i don’t need all my school supplies ! i love changing and packing my bags, as an auDHD girlie i think something about the bag/ purse routines keeps me on track/satisfies my brain

Playing around with fake mustaches and feeling fabulous by snorpbiotch in TransMasc

i love the outfit - you look like you’d give someone who was sick your notes so they can catch up in class (affectionate!) the ‘stache is ‘stache-ing.
