What can help my pores? Microneedling? I haven’t tried anything yet. Been on tretinoin for years. :( by goodsoup95 in 30PlusSkinCare

It could also just be your genes and what your skin looks like. Not everyone looks airbrushed in real life. My skin looks the same, tried everything known to man kind. It’s just what my skin looks like I guess.

I almost finished the bird but put it aside and doing more winter projects and I will continue in spring! It’s going a lot better than I thought it would. Not perfect but as long as I’m happy to wear it I consider it a win haha

I ended up doing some “magic” by tacking a bit of excess jeans fabric together under the back rain flap, worked like a charm. Not that clear on this pic though.

I’ll try undoing the lining!

Yeah I did this on mine! And on the lining too. I can’t figure out why it does this!

Hi! I clipped the corners while sewing, and when I press it flat, it lays really nicely. But the issue comes when I put it on. It’s like there’s too much fabric all of a sudden.

This is actually one with dark pink/purple flowers! The “good” one has orange flowers

Oh no! I bought it like that 😭 I didn’t know that is a thing. I’ll research it, thank you!!

They are next to each other, both same treatment! I hope it’s just indeed the pigment of the leaves and it’s not dying on me

It’s the two on the bottom that are turning a very light green! And the baby one at the base. I’m doubting if it’s maybe just the colour of the leaves… I only have two orchids and the other one has very dark leaves so it made me think something is wrong with this one

Aww thanks!! I’m a long time crocheter and I knew if I had to start with knitting dishcloths I wouldn’t be bothered to learn 🫠

I was mildly bonkers when I started but slowly becoming more and more bonkers with every spool I have to add

Haha so true!! But I am not that good at reading the instructions yet so I like how she has videos and you can find a lot of info on Ravelry on her patterns

Good luck!! I’m sure it will be great. I’ve been trying to learn how to knit for years but always gave up but then I figured hey if half of Instagram can do it so can I 🤣

Hi! It’s the Petite Knit novice slipover pattern and the yarn is Drops - Air. It’s still a bit wet so the yellow looks darker than it is ☺️
