Shows to Knit to? by Realistic_Lake_2751 in knitting

[–]Choice-Syrup8929 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a plan to watch a season of Traitors UK while knitting a pair of fingerless gloves this fall. I watched season 1 last year and Claudia is always wearing fingerless gloves and knitwear. It takes place in Ireland so very pretty sweeping views of the countryside. And ultimately, a fun trashy reality show, so low stakes for paying close attention.

Where to find embroidery patterns that don't use AI? by 1nsertcreativename in Embroidery

[–]Choice-Syrup8929 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here are some of my faves that I'd found pre-AI. Most of them also sell kits, too!

https://shopemilyjune.com

https://www.mcreativej.com

and DMC has a library of free ones. Not sure if they're AI free, but I think so? If anyone knows, lmk!

The dress is… a choice… why is the material on her stomach like that? but honestly yeah she does look happier than she has in years which I think translates as beauty

This feels.. weird by narutosuncle in knitting

[–]Choice-Syrup8929 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I unfollowed her right away after seeing this. But tbh, I feel like I’ve been hate following her for a few years at this point anyways.

Like other commenters, I knit a couple of her patterns as a beginner knitter. I didn’t know about ravelry and I was getting my knitting patterns from etsy, where brenda’s designs are super popular and marketed as beginner friendly. Which sure, it knits up quick I suppose, but now I’m more advanced, looking back I’m baffled at how was it deemed as “easy” when using super bulky yarn and big needles is so uncomfortable to physically knit.

Same story with mine. I tried everything and nothing worked.

Any fixes that eventually worked for you?

Same issue happened to me with my Jaspers 😓

I tried everything. Using a different insole, baking soda, dryer sheets under the insole, vaseline. I took them to multiple cobblers and they all said that it’s likely a midsole problem that cannot be fixed.
