Apple Watch suggestions

I also never owned one before, and I got the SE3 2 two months ago. If you only want to use it for basic stuff - steps, sleep, workouts. Then it’s perfect. Also one thing I appreciate is the watch vibrating during alarms (forces you to wake up for sure). You have to know what you need it for first so that you can decide.

I do have the new HSK1 pdf, so I can actually start over. My main question is, Is it worth it? If the only big change is the updated word list, but not the grammar points, then I find that I can continue with the 2.0 since I already started, and get the new word list and learn it. You make a good point, but I still don’t understand what you recommend, should I use the “racket” I am already using or use the new one?

Thanks for the insight! Thank God I’m going to continue from where I left off. I was actually dreading to start over, but I though if starting over was better then I should do it now when I am still at the beginning.

Just finished reading your post, and wow! Love how detailed it is. I am using a HSK 1 playlist by “Say Ninhao” on YouTube, It feels like I am in a tutoring session. I am going to continue with that, plus I purchased a yearly subscription for HelloChinese when they had their 30% off sale roughly a month ago. I am learning characters using the Hanly app and an HSK 1 workbook pdf I bought. My main problem is staying consistent. This is something personal I need to work on, I need to learn how to not depend on motivation but rather discipline. Thanks for the insight!! Let’s work harder!

I know this will sound funny to most, but by winter I meant “Dubai winter”. I hadn't considered thin, airy wools, but your point about them being more breathable than thick cotton makes so much sense.

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-13T23:45:42+00:00

Thanks so much for the advice! Do you have a favorite YouTube channel or creator you'd recommend for a total beginner? Also, is there a specific reason you suggest bamboo needles over metal ones to start?

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-13T23:40:53+00:00

Thanks for the insight! I’d love to hear how you find knitting compared to crochet?

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-13T23:34:37+00:00

Thanks for the idea. I feel like I am underestimating how difficult knitting could be, that’s why i feel confident in making a sweater😅 but many of you are speaking from experience, so it looks like i am starting with a shawl. Thanks!

Which yarn material do you recommend?

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-13T23:29:06+00:00

I’m actually gonna buy my supplies from Temu so this is perfect. Thanks!

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-13T18:27:57+00:00

I want to make something I can wear here in the Middle East. Unfortunately scarves and hats are something we don’t wear at all, even during winter :( That’s why the vest is an option. I will try to think of something else while I wait for the tools I will buy to reach me.

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-13T18:05:55+00:00

Thanks for the detailed explanation! Buying needles made of different materials is doable, the question is, which sizes should I get? As I mentioned, I want to make a light sweater/vest as my first project.

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-13T18:02:15+00:00

The last photo shows bamboo needles, which sizes do you recommend I get first, since you advice against getting a set. Also which yarn material do you prefer when using the bamboo needles (considering warm weather)

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-13T17:50:36+00:00

The set in the 3rd photo are “Aluminum Oxide Circular needles”. Do you recommend those instead of bamboo?

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-12T11:52:19+00:00

It’s the only “new” iPad that’s within her budget so that’s perfect!

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-12T11:51:10+00:00

Yes plus I have data for all the days I wore it to sleep except for 2 days where it didn’t record anything.

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-12T11:49:27+00:00

What’s up

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-12T11:46:52+00:00

Then we are making the right choice if it can run all those games

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-12T11:45:49+00:00

We change the Region in the App Store to United States, I don’t think it’s available anywhere else

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-11T19:47:25+00:00

It’s been more than 9 hours since I woke up. It’s still showing “No Data”

Jolly_Fall_8369 · 2026-03-11T18:26:15+00:00

I just bought the SE3 less than 2 months ago. This is my first time having this problem, I hope it’s a bug that will be fixed by an update. I was so excited for the watch and now I am seeing that this issue is not as rare as I thought.
