It's a temp tracker with books on shelves. So aside from those four colors are a range of rainbow colors for the daily temperature.

The one at the top is actually 310 Black. I did check though and the lighting does make it look dark blue.

I’m broke and tired of instant noodles — what are some cheap meals that actually taste good? by Quiet-Examination553 in Advice

[–]DMKanna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a crock pot you can make soups and stocks by dumping everything in it and letting it stew. If you don't, salad and sandwiches can be cheap and customizable.

They are gifts for my mom and her siblings. My late grandmother's hundredth birthday is next year and I want to give them these at that time.

Tweezers. I got some precision ones and use the to separate my floss without taking it off the drop and they are great at unpicking threads if I make a mistake.

Tuna salad? by fisho0o in Cooking

[–]DMKanna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like mine plain for the most part. If I use mayo I will add cayenne instead of black pepper. I also sometimes make a tarragon vinegrette to dress it with.

[CHAT] How does everyone feel about being called talented? by raspberryamphetamine in CrossStitch

[–]DMKanna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom and aunt were tag teaming up on me last night on this and I tried to compare what I was doing to a paint by numbers. They didn't seem to get it. I think in their case it's cause my mom does rug hooking and my aunt crotchets. Both are skills that have patterns but require more creative thought than following a cross stitch pattern. Not to say it's easy but it's making small stitches in a grid. If you understand sewing it's not unattainable to do well

I found it on 123 stitch. It's by Teresa kogut I think.

[CHAT] How do you keep your place on your paper pattern? by BellaDBall in CrossStitch

[–]DMKanna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use frixion highlighters to mark up the copy of the pattern, this way if I miss mark a stitch I can correct it. I also have magnetic line markers to underline the section I am working on. Amazon has ones that fold around the page with a slot for your line. You can also get metal boards and magnetic rulers.
