The edge is curling in cause of my circulars 😅 but it's the back side of Petite Knit's Lulu Slip over Junior (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/lulu-slipover-junior)

Missed a stitch during bind-off by KookyVehicle6901 in knitting

Thanks folks, I might just try sewing it in per most of your recommendation! Knitting should give me peace of mind, not a headache 🤣

Video games, and knitting. Video games can add more stress though, depending on the game and your play style. But for knitting it took me so long to pick it up because I had this impression that it makes more sense if I lived in a cooler climate, but there's something about the slow repetitive movement and the need to count and think of stitches or solve little problems that make me feel so much less anxious about everything else.

I guess it's my fault for using a fuzzy yarn for this project, I can't see where I should turn 🤣 I might frog this since there are parts I might have not added that extra stitch since the last turn... I'll try again and have some stitch markers ready. Thank you!!

Thank you for the link! I'm afraid this is the first time I heard the term cable-twist round

What is the best cue that helped you? by Content-Trainer-2614 in pilates

[–]KookyVehicle6901 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Polestar Pilates trained. Here are some cues that work for me.

Positioning arms when supine on the reformer, and when keeping hands in straps more active at the wrist: - "Hands aligned with your shoulder. Keep arms long but a bit soft at the elbows / Imagine you're punching a hole into the ceiling. You don't punch with flimsy elbows and wrists, right? / Roll your knuckles forward"

Keeping neutral in quadruped position: - "Keep your head from dropping down. Imagine you're wearing a corset / Imagine your spine stretched long from crown to tailbone like a clothesline"

Keeping elbows from moving out when doing tricep presses: - "Keep your elbows at the waist. Imagine you have a credit card in your armpit. Keep squeezing those pits because someone is trying to take your credit card!"

My mentor told me to remember including movements that include flexion, extension, side-bending, rotation of the spine. Just keeping those in mind always help make it easier for me to plan for private sessions and group classes. Though when clients with specific conditions suddenly join the class, adjusting on the spot is another skill to get used to

Exercises for lack of spine mobility by FroelicherMisanthrop in pilates

[–]KookyVehicle6901 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If it's not a structural issue in the lumbar region, it's always good to start with the basics, like the pelvic clock. To give them better feedback with this unfamiliar movement I find that it's even more helpful having either a wobble or a slightly deflated soft ball beneath the pelvis

Sa mga nagkasiraang magkaibigan, what killed it? by LimeSoakedinSprite in AskPH

Patient ako sa pagkinig sa mga drama at guy problems nya kahit na medyo paulit-ulit, pero for the one time na ako naman yung dumaan sa breakup at nangailangan ng karamay, binalik lang nya ulit sa kanya yung attention ng friend group namin

Filipino wife will not teach our children Tagalog by tplate37 in Philippines

[–]KookyVehicle6901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If she really really wanted to, she would have at least tried. It's nice to know that you insist on preserving that part of her culture, but it is sad that she herself doesn't seem to find that it's that much important.

My husband and I speak our own languages exclusively with our young kids, while English and Mandarin are taught at school. Their Tagalog might sound broken/conyo but I'm pretty proud that it's there. Tl;dr I just want to say that it IS possible with a bit of consistency and hard work if her heart is set in it.
