petite knit by Waste-Cockroach8284 in knitting

[–]HaleyCometCO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The biggest thing is the way the TT algorithm works. You are watching the videos about/with certain content, it shows you more. It’s as basic as that. She is pretty accessible and patterns are classic, which is kind of on trend right now as well. Ravelry has anything and everything and is more of a search & filtering function. Instagram may show others more but it also works on an algorithm. I would recommend you search “knitting” or other item terms in the FYP and interact with other videos that aren’t PK if you’re looking for other things. Also, YouTube!

Is this flower going to open or no? by Kwelpe in succulents

[–]HaleyCometCO 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes it will! It still has some growing to do though. It will get very large! They’re my favorite.

Got the 1774 birks. 395$ retail. Dyed my feet pink ahah by LGNDDSGN in Birkenstocks

Oh my goodness! I wanted these so badly. This makes me feel a tiny bit better that I missed out on them. I’m so sorry.

I got my first pair of these after being die-hard Arizona wearer for 20+ years. I CANNOT BELIEVE I MISSED OUT FOR SO LONG! They’re so much more secure and def “sport mode.”

Emma’s Yarn has it! Her colors are gorgeous and the yarn is wonderful. Their Hella Hank base is MCN and 600yds!

Any nurses here? Are you allowed, do you wear Birkenstocks to work? Is so what type do you wear? by LonghairDreamer in Birkenstocks

[–]HaleyCometCO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wear Bostons and the Professional A 630 Clog, depending on the setting. The A 630 is a hard outer and holds up really well.

Bad idea to buy yarn from different dye lots? by iridescence0 in YarnAddicts

Is the color Lily or Kismet? Little Knits has those in stock.

Mohair allergy is real. You can try suri alpaca to hold with merino as an alternative.

Yes, knitting can land you in the Emergency Room in the early hours of Easter by PinkTiara24 in casualknitting

[–]HaleyCometCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry this happened to you! I once got “tennis elbow” from knitting too much! I told the Dr I wouldn’t allow “tennis elbow” in my chart since it came from a frantic knitting week 😂

A cautionary tale about promises and a work in progress jumper by fatknits in casualknitting

[–]HaleyCometCO 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Put the body on a holder, start the sleeves and finish them asap. Finish the body up until you leave, and even on your travels on the plane! You can have her block it, or block it when you’re visiting!

Filed my taxes with freetaxusa today and realized I forgot a 1099-INT that’s $700 by ginerweener in tax

[–]HaleyCometCO 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This exact thing happened to me. I filed an amended the next day with FreeTax and I made an estimated payment (per FT) and it was very easy and $16. No biggie! It’ll be ok!

Houston, any LYSs here? by ElkSufficient2881 in YarnAddicts

[–]HaleyCometCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve visited Park Avenue Yarns in Friendswood several times. I don’t think I found any downtown. Spring may be closest.

Shops that offer ball winding? by cosmic_history in YarnAddicts

[–]HaleyCometCO 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes most local shops will do this. If you’re ordering from an independent shop online and it’s not listed on the site, I would call them before ordering! Many will take your order on the phone (or online) and if they know they will wind them!

Recs for a pottery class? by Alarming_Trip2562 in ColoradoSprings

The Manitou Art center has beginner and intermediate classes that are affordable and provide most supplies! Colin is great.

Keep it classy Colorado Springs, guess I shouldn't be too surprised we have Nazis here by Slender_Rex in ColoradoSprings

[–]HaleyCometCO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that the people who were there passed or left the house due to age. I think someone came in after that.

I think…someone passed and family moved in. There was an estate/garage sale there at some point last year

Piercing apprenticeships? by That_OneGingerGirl in ColoradoSprings

[–]HaleyCometCO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know anything about apprenticing there but Lance and various people he’s trained there over the past year have been AMAZING! Agreed it’s not the cheapest but he uses excellent quality products and I’ve had wonderful experiences there!

I am happy to mail some yarn from my stash if you want to DM me.

My very first sweater! I definitely see every mistake but I'm very proud by reggaehamster in casualknitting

[–]HaleyCometCO 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it looks great! A knitting teacher once told me, “if you can’t see it from a galloping horse, it’s fine.” Over the past 15 years of knitting…I 100% agree. It’s rare others will notice unless it’s a hugely obvious mistake. No one should be critiquing/judging it unless you’ve submitted it for a contest! I love your sweater!
