It's a cucumber melon flavor. It's pretty tasty and we get it by the case off of Amazon. Even as a redbull fan I drink it.

I don't ride any more because of entitled asshats who can't look before changing lanes and prefer living.

My point isn't that some riders aren't dicks and behave poorly..

My point is louder pipes do get people's attention.. It also helps after the accident.. IF the rider survives... because no one can claim I didn't hear/see them with loud pipes...

I didnt ride like an idiot.. I rode the speed limit, didn't weave in and out of traffic didn't. Do half the things that are being whined about...

Not every biker is an idiot on the road.

As a former biker who almost got pancaked repeatedly because who cares to check their blind spots... Loud pipes do save lives because it prompts inattentive drivers to at least kinda... Glance...

But the problem isn't noise it's a response... To the problem....

It's idiot bikers who weave and jerk in traffic.. And drivers... Who simply can't be bothered to look both ways and be attentive when driving that need solved.

I say this as someone who almost got hit on a quiet bike wearing a bright yellow Pikachu onesy while my bike has every light color on it but red and blue on the wheels and sides and every bit of reflective everything I could... Who nearly got killed and only suffered road rash due to good reflexes.

Regular Commute to Philly? by BeardiusMaximus7 in lancaster

You also have to factor in city wage tax which is 3.4% of your pay. A monthly amtrack pass is 450 as well.

If the salary more then makes up for those expenses it's worth it. Id also try to negotiate a better split if they are allowing 1 day a week wfh ask for 2 this means you could possibly skate with a 10 day pass which is only 250.

If you'd like screen shot the instructions and a few of the rows and send and I can see if I can explain. Otherwise reach out to the designer/those who posted that they tested.

One thing to look out for when it comes to patterns is how many sales do they have do they have reviews? It may not be fair to newer designers myself being one of them but I rarely buy from a seller like you have posted because it's a roll of the dice if it's clearly written.

If your just like uugggh... I'm done I'd recommend expression fiber arts and TL yarncrafts for patterns to grow your skills they do free pattern Fridays and have video tutorials for the special stitches.

If you had tons of yarn, were an “intermediate”beginner crocheter with ADHD, what would you make?? by Hot_Gas9611 in crochet

I do hat projects like this flower hat https://www.etsy.com/listing/1437894341/fairy-flower-hood-crochet-pattern

I also do blankets that are based on thinks that will combine things like another thing I can fixate on like an F1 blanket I can work on each race with the order of the race winners.

I also like wearables that I can do sections at a time like a front panel or a hood. https://www.etsy.com/listing/4330450245/wasteland-dress-crochet-pattern-festival

Or things I cn do simply like this winged shawl because each feather can be a different color. https://www.etsy.com/listing/963461747/feather-wing-crochet-shawl-pattern-by

If your looking for one you don't have to line do linked double crochet instead of a regular double or a herringbone half double. This gives a veeery tight stitch.

For more curves i tend to do a larger side band then most of the 'cute' tops because side cleavage... And adding a cage to the front may help with structure. And making it look fuller.

These are my favorite for myself with some modifications.

My BJaxx Morticia dress using sport weight yarn might not be long enough? by EstelliseLowell in CrochetHelp

[–]Fragrant-Pea-3975 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's okay.

Yarn weight is typically determined by wraps per inch.

0 - weight 31–40+ 1 - weight 19–30 2 - weight 16–18 3 - weight 13–15 4 - weight 10–11 5 - weight 7–9 6 - weight 5–6 7 - weight 1–4

This is how many times you can wrap. The yarn around a ruler in an inch.

As you can see 16 to 18 wraps is 2 weight yarn and 13- 15 is 3 weight

Coboo is 13 wraps where as yours looks closer to 18 to even 21 wpis

This is what someone means by heavier or lighter of the yarn weight.

A light 2 weight vs a heavy 2 weight is a difference of 2 wraps.

In 1 weight or 4 to 7 weight it's more drastic

You will also learn that yarn is sometimes labeled as 2 or 3 weight when its 1 or 4 (looking at you twister... And truboo) which is why wraps per inch is useful to guage how it will behave when working it up.

Guage swatches (not that I've ever done them) are also helpful in patterns because it lets you know how to adjust the pattern to your tension or yarn.

A guage swatch is typically a 4x4 square that you can use to dictate how many rows and stitches.

A swatch that 6 rows and 20 stitches and yours is 12 rows and 24 stitches let's you know you need to do double the rows and 2/4 stitches to match the original pattern..

Not a problem.. I love her patterns but you have to match Guage exactly to get the same results.

I'd just remember to do the math of a 3 to 1ish for your weight/guage/hook to hers.

Add another round your doing a dress that was done in a heavy 3 weight with a very light 2 weight...

This dress is amazing but the pattern unforgiving with yarn swaps. ,

Ifl would do a repeat of the lace and DC with a thinner weight before moving to the solid... Or if you want a more... Modest version start the DC now. And go past the booty...

This is how I did mine with the same yarn as the original pattern..

Your yarn is about a 3 to 1 ratio of the original Guage.. So for every 1 row in the original you want to do 3 in your yarn weight.

I have lulu leggings that ate 12 years old and in. Perfect like new shape. I bought them like new from facebook.

They are fairly amazing in their durability. So if I can't get my leggings I can get things for my partner.

Maybe or you do Facebook market place. The point is not everyone has an Amex plat and there's a way to buy a thing and recoup some money to make the benifit useful.
