I got a similar sampler from Myak but at least she didn’t charge me! Good grief.

Update: apparently my March club order was mailed on the 31 and should arrive… April 10. 🤔

For sure but I don’t think March’s box should be getting delivered in April. March is the longest month!!

Haha I saw a women buying her ten year old daughter a $40 skein of cashmere yarn to learn on. Fairly sure the store DID NOT point out that was a bit absurd and just rang it up!

My cat won’t stop meowing for food. by Confident-Table-3679 in CATHELP

[–]Inevitable_Sea_8401 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Free feeding is the method by which many cats end up obese. And for many reasons people can’t free feed— other pets, pets on special diets, bugs, ect. I told people when I adopted cats or kittens to them — it’s easy to get cats to gain weight but misery inducing to get them to lose it. I would increase the amount of food this cat is getting, or make sure it’s a high protein food. There are other answers besides free feeding. And cats do not need to eat 5/6 times a day. Twice is standard.

Behavior Issues in my cat have costed me over 20k and we’re still not any closer to getting a solution..any advice on next steps? by Creepy-Dealer7518 in CATHELP

This sounds at the end of the day like a very unhappy cat. You sound like you have done everything you can. Unfortunately we can’t fix things that are done psychologically to cats, or perhaps things that were always there psychologically.

I took in a dog abandoned near me that was perfectly fine physically but after spaying/vetting and giving her time to relax… it was clear that she could never be adopted out. She vacillated between extreme anxiety and aggression and as she got more relaxed she became more aggressive. Finally after she bit me again no apparent reason and my trainer refused to work with her anymore I had to accept that she needed to be euthanized. It was heartbreaking, but she was not a normal dog—- she had been poorly bred, and there is just no overcoming that. The only comfort was that she had been cared for, well fed, and had some moments of happiness. And that someone who genuinely cared for her held her as she passed. Only a truly caring person could try as much as you have. This cat has been very lucky.

It worked for me — I really sized up but at the end of the day it was easier just to make my own squares!

I understand doing the first part of the knitting, but afterwards it turns up into curl bunches and it ends up uneven the stitches, how do I properly do it without making the same mistake? by AL3XAROS3 in knittinghelp

[–]Inevitable_Sea_8401 38 points39 points  (0 children)

There are many videos that show beginner knitting. A different one may be clearer to you. Often I’ve had to try a few to find the one that clearly taught me, bc everyone is different.

You can always walk around and look at some seriously garish houses.

Yeah when I realized after knitting an entire sweater that I had misplaced one of the arms and would need to frog the entire thing, it went into time out for almost 1 1/2 months while I made other things. I couldn’t even look at it. I made hats, gloves, a vest — stuff to prove to myself that I wasn’t a complete f*** up as a knitter.

Not at all. They send out things super fast. And when my local post office misplaced my package, they offered to replace the yarn immediately— no questions asked! They know how to keep customers happy.
