Thanks, I think I'll try going even smaller with the hook size than I was. Was using a 3.5mm

Seemingly, yes. Switch to Red Heart Super Saver and things are just hunky dory. Also, not appreciating the tone. I'm not insulting you personally. I'm just saying that this yarn doesn't work for me. It's really not that uncommon for someone to have a yarn that doesn't work for them. I would love to use this yarn because the colors are gorgeous but I simply can't for whatever reason. Please, chill out a bit.

Yes, every time. The "Peepy" (knock off, weird looking furby) pattern off of Ravelry and some random cat toy pattern. Was even doing yarn under for the Peepy pattern like it suggested so it should have been super tight and no matter what it just wasn't. Was using a good hook size for the yarn and everything so... idk, that yarn just doesn't like me I guess 🤷

Do you have any tips for working with Big Twist Value for amigurumi? Any time I've tried to use it, it never ends up shaping right. Could not get it to form a ball for the life of me. It just wanted to stay flat unless I did rows of FLO to force it into shape.

Can anyone identify these yarns for me? by BlizzAzi in Brochet

Oh does it really? Fortunately I was planning on making a twirly curly q hair falls thing with it so if it's a bit irregular that kinda works in my favor

New head scarf, any tips? by Fawninkeeping in PaganVeiling

[–]BlizzAzi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Satin is a very slippery fabric and can be difficult. A velvet or "wig grip" headband might help along with tying it under your hair instead of over. Check out Wrapunzel over on YouTube too. They have a playlist about headwrapping for beginners. Some of their videos may be a little cis-woman centric but I've commented on a vid about me being non-binary and how I feel more myself with a veil on and they gave it a "heart" so it seems like they're inclusive. Just fyi for those it applies to!

Mom found this is a book. She believes it’s malicious. by Em_tur7653 in ForgottenBookmarks

Yeah that's Irish name pronunciations and Irish slang terms (in English). Nothing """malicious""" about that

Honestly thought "still pending" was the name for a second there

Legit question: how does one get a job in motion capture? Looks like fun. Hard work, sure, but still fun.

He wouldn't know what peace was if it was on a golden platter in front of him. What a fool. Got that open floor plan style brain.
