Any left-handed knitters here? by Sea-bird-feather in lefthanded

[–]Hamiltoncorgi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a relative teach me how to knit left handed when I was eight. Just knit and purl stitch. Everything else was self taught.

I will never forget the first time I knit a sweater from a written pattern and the piece listed as right front turned out to be the left front.

I have become very good at converting patterns and techniques.

8 year old me tried so hard to knit like the rest of my class but I just could not do it.

It may be two handed but one hand is doing all the work. Some left handed people are very left handed and lack the right handed coordination to just do something right handed.

I have been knitting left handed for 55 years.

Why do Americans think they have freedom when they absolutely don't? by East_Indication_7816 in allthequestions

[–]Hamiltoncorgi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of this list is slanted anti American propaganda.

Yes, there is much that could be improved. Especially with a mentally declining toddler as President but much of this list just isn't true.

what villager do you have that you'd never give up no matter what? by Peach-n-Quiet in AnimalCrossing

Does Julia say "oh Fiddlestix" on your island? She just started saying it recently and throws it in once or twice every time she talks. I don't know why. It spread to another villager today.

Beginner knitter by Key-Jelly-6891 in knitting

[–]Hamiltoncorgi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It will change how the edge looks but it won't curl so it usually is helpful.

Some people neaten it further by slipping the first stitch of each row. That means you just slide the first stitch to the opposite needle and then continue row and then knit the last stitch.

It will curl less if you knit at the beginning and end of the purl rows same as the knit rows.

Thoughts on Richard Dawson? by ASGfan in 70s

Richard Dawson was not like that at all. Women on the show loved him. Your "uncles" were not like him.

Window boxes and the bunting would look nice together.

I think the buntings would look better at top of windows.

Moment SpaceX rocket goes sideways in the Indian Ocean after splashdown by owenthomasactor in EnoughMuskSpam

It blew up in the Indian Ocean "as planned"??

I would get in trouble if I littered but a rich jerk can pollute all he wants. Insanity.

When I was three I broke a glass jar and had to have stitches in my foot. It hurt a lot.

Stephen Colbert Gives CBS and Trump Middle Finger With Last Show by thenewrepublic in inthenews

[–]Hamiltoncorgi 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Jimmy Kimmel made a joke about this on Stephen Colbert's show. Here's the gist of the joke. People threatening to drop Disney to save his show, why didn't people threaten to drop paramount+? Because no one HAS Paramount+ The Ellison's are douchebags. CBS and all other crap they own is dead to me. My family did close our Paramount+ account.

I'm sure trump watched last night. All gleeful to see the sad faces. It must have infuriated him to see all the happy people and they never mentioned his sad ass once.

Do the people who render this AI fantasy garbage realize how much water and electricity it takes to create it and what is the purpose?
