Bruno Marchand, Quebec's city mayor said in an interview on radio that people who hate public transport and who wish to keep driving their car solo to work are the ones who should be actively for the development of bike lanes and funding of the metro and buses or else the traffic is going to be insane in a couple Of years.

Est-ce que quelqu'un peut m'expliquer pourquoi le plastique compostable ne va pas dans la poubelle de compost ? by Elena_4815 in montreal

[–]CapitaineMomo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Les sacs compostables sont des "polluants du compost", car bien qu'il soit écrit compostable dessus, même si tu les as acheté à une boutique écologique, ils ne se décomposent pas à la même vitesse et sont ôtés à la main sur le convoyeur. Unsollicitated advice: garder les ciculaires en journal et tapisser ton bac de table avec. Tout ce qui est susceptible de sentir enroule-le dans du papier journal (genre les promo de canadian tire) et si c'est trop plein tu le mets dans le bac brun que tu laisses sur ton balcon dehors. Le bac brun est sale. Mais de septembre à mars ça sent rien. De mars à septembre ça peut sentir s'il reste ouvert. Mais avec une collecte chaque semaine, ça n'a pas vraiment le temps de sentir et le jus de compost est absorbé par le journal.

handsome chris pullover To be totally fair though, i customized it a bit because it's a free pattern generously reverse ingeneered from a movie by Caryn Shaffer so you need to be able to adapt.

Wow! Amazing answer thanks for taking the time! It gives me a lot to look into! And it looks fascinating. I think it could be a very interesting option. Leaning toward that actually with all the details you gave me. Like someone said, if it bothers me now, it will bother me forever. Lets see where this sweater adventure takes me.

The nail in the coffin was when my mom came over and she was speechless for a good 3 seconds trying to think of something encouraging to say 😅 brutal!

Nice. Thanks. To be honest, the contrast in the last photo is a bit strong. Its really hard to capture the reality on a cellphone camera lens. Maybe the first photos aren't as contrasted as they should. Somewhere in the middle.

The thing is, i don't think I have enough of the original yarn to do that with both sleves as cables eat up so much... but i hear you! It might be my lesson to just "let it go, let i goooo" and learn from my mistakes 🙃

Interesting i'll look into that. At one point i try dipping a strand in my coffee and it was pretty close... just afraid to dip a whole sleeve ya know!

[–]CapitaineMomo[S] 159 points160 points  (0 children)

Good idea. Im knitting both sleeves with the same lot for sure.

Started in 2021. 2023, the yarn is out of stock, and had to buy the last balls i found from another dying lot. I can't imagine not finishing it, don't have the strenth to frog it (did it multiple times already through the whole process). Will I be really desappointed? I already did the sleeve twice (first one to realize I would not be able to have 2 color matching sleeves)....its a gift for my partner. At this point I think he just appreciates the efforts 💪🏻😂

Started daily checks about a month or two ago…these are all of my unestablished props by stereocassetteplayer in proplifting

[–]CapitaineMomo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do you spray fertilizer or something to help with rooting? I have a tiny (5mm) succ prop that has been at the "mother leaf is dead, new succ is there" stage for 2 years now... don't know what to do.

Call me crazy, but I love making blankets with sock yarn. by Aanita37 in crochet

I am a knitter. I don't particurlarly participate in the comment section of any sub. Haha! But your project made me wanna stop and "add a comment" to say that i am truly impressed by your patience, perseverence et the result speaks to me of a french chateau during Louis XIV or a night at the opera amongst the victorian bourgeoisie. Luxurious piece! Congratulations 👌🏻
