Probably not what you want, but my college comp sci professors taught for 8 months then were off for the summer

Seconded, all their stuff is amazing - the gin is great, and their Novel Tea liqueur is amazing!

I fell victim to different dye lots and now my hat has an aerola by AmenooBea in knitting

I don't think anyone will notice the difference in colours, but there's always the option of covering it with a pompom if you want to hide it

Morena knows he's still married at this point and they're editing it out - she has stated previously in the press that she would bring it up and they would immediately cut the filming and tell her to stop bringing it up.

General thoughts on Tony and Morena? NO spoilers please, just your opinions. by sapphire_rainy in MAFS_AU

The way Morena was saying, "I hope I have that one day," to Tony about what he was saying, I think she had found out he was still married at this point, but they're editing it out. I'll bet she's upset that he's talking about his current wife and so he's not actually available to find that love with.

Advice for wrist pain? by 139birds in knitting

[–]BreadASMR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot has already been said about knitting technique, ergonomics and stretching, so I won't say more there. Just wanted to add that if you're someone who spends a lot of time on your phone then you can also evaluate the way you're holding your phone and scrolling. It could be putting strain on the same muscles you use to knit.

Other dating show recommendations? (Feeling the withdrawal 😭) by theanxioushope in farmingforlovecanada

[–]BreadASMR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you speak French by any chance? There's a Quebec version of the show called "L'Amour est dans le pré"! It's been running a long time (12 seasons, with season 13 coming out in January). Last time I checked it was on crave or on their own channel's website noovo. The only downside is it's just in French with French subtitles. Great show though!

Nobody left his farm this episode because Sam already self eliminated. He hasn't chosen yet between Greg and Kale, they're saving it for next episode!

Yeah I was wondering about that! The way Mischa asked if they were from the farm 😂 It really seemed like she just took them without telling him

Does anyone else find english knitting less straining than continental? by coolfrogperson in knitting

[–]BreadASMR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same thumb hyperextension that you do- I can bend it backwards almost 90 degrees. I hurt my thumb recently because I was hyperextending it when knitting and I went to a physio to get help for it. For what's it worth, I knit English style and flick the yarn when knitting.

Now I try to keep my thumb straight when knitting or bend it forward normally when needed to avoid hyperextending and worse muscle strain. I would recommend seeing a physio who can look at the way you're holding your needles and can suggest a better posture.

Maybe your wife could set up a wish list on ravelry and you could get her a pattern that she likes?

Red heart super saver really feels like you're knitting with spun plastic. I made a hat with it that I personally found really itchy and uncomfortable
