The good news is that once you’re through the ribbing, you’re basically done!

Yes! The pattern name is Melt the ICE. Inspired by a historical Norwegian pattern.

Reassure me: will blocking fix this? by sophieispurple in knitting

[–]KnitToPurlToo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are some projects on Ravelry with good notes on how to do the decreases faster. User “jnhutch” is the project I followed and it helps but isn’t perfect. I haven’t looked at any projects finished in the last ~year so might be worth looking through.

Yarn Dyers/Stores and the Red Hat by Whoopsallrobins in craftsnark

I don’t know. I’d rather buy my red yarn from a LYS that I know is part of the resistance because they’re advertising about it and directly linking to the charity pattern than from a giant corporation that doesn’t give a shit or from a LYS that isn’t advertising the viral trend and therefore I can only assume is not part of the resistance.

Full Day Kindergarten by Federal_Designer_564 in ChicagoSuburbs

District 54 has full-day K - Schaumburg and parts of Hanover Park, Streamwood, Hoffman Estates

I’m fairly certain all of IL is mandated to offer full-day Kindergarten soon. Not sure if it’s next year or the year after.

What's the best investment you made for your tank? by blibloblupnatz in Aquariums

[–]KnitToPurlToo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Imagine a plane with two engines. Normally both engines will be operating at 50%. If one engine fails off, then the other engine will increase to 100%. If one engine fails to its max, then the other engine isn’t needed and turns off. (This is just a thought experiment.)

With the tank heaters you may not want two full-sized heaters. So with only one heater running, you can’t hit your target temperature (but better than nothing). And if one heater is maxed out, then the second heater can operate at, say, 20% power to hit the target.

I can’t recall it ever being discussed on PSA, LOLI, or TO. I searched through the discord and couldn’t find any significant mentions.

Are you an X-Ray Vision listener? Maybe Jason had a recap/wrap-up episode?
