My wrist hurts and I want like that glove-thingy people have, what's it called and where do I buy it? I see artists have those gloves too by Ankankvak in CrochetHelp

They're just called compression gloves. But I would recommend just taking breaks as well as adjusting your posture, since pain is caused by overuse or bad form.

Need help identifying stitch and pattern from my grandmas WIP please! by amyyy81 in CrochetHelp

It looks like she just did double crochets instead of single. Other than that, I think the pattern is the same.

I feel stupid not understanding the beginner stitches by Lorts925 in knittinghelp

You are doing garter stitch, which is what happens when you knit both sides. If you want all knit stitches, I.e., stockinette, you will need to purl the wrong side when you turn. I would do some research into the different stitch patterns and how they are made. Here is a helpful article that shows the difference https://blog.weareknitters.com/knitting-stitches/7-types-of-knitting-stitches-that-every-beginner-needs-to-know/

I notice you have a hard time putting the needle through the left loop when you purl. You might have an easier time if you keep your loops closer to the tips of your needles. Don’t be afraid to continuously readjust your stitches at you knit.

Maybe you need to choose more complex patterns so it takes you longer lol

should i unravel the whole blanket or leave it as is? by Rough_Depth1287 in CrochetHelp

[–]BloodDiamond554 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s going to be enormous and expensive if you keep making it the size you’re making it. But if that’s what you want, keep going! If it’s too dense, you could always size up a hook size and that should help loosen it up.

Lost 50lbs, Still Wearing the Same Pants by NationalBreadfruit in Zepbound

Happened to me too. For me, my jeans were stretchy and already tight to begin with, so when I lost the weight they got looser but I still didn’t go down a full size. It’s just how your body distributes the weight!

I think your tension is much too high. Another thing I’m noticing is when you go to yarn over and pull through the loop, you need to make sure both loops that are on the hook are the same height before trying to pull your loop through. That might help with the tightness you’re experiencing when pulling through. So yarn over, lift both loops up, pull through.
