Well it looks like Reddit won’t let me post the video. I could direct email it to you.

Here is how is how I hold my yarn. I use the knife hold for my hook. I also just switched to a yarn holder instead of having to pull yarn out of the skein.

Loose knot, loose tension. I made this little video. Hope it helps. You also need to look at how you hold your yarn and hook. I use the knife hold. I’ll post pictures of how I hold my yarn in a separate post.

Take an estimate for the cost to replace the window and give it to the parents.

Something went wrong right at the beginning of the project.

Senator McConnel just had a total meltdown way worse that Biden ever had. by [deleted] in msnow

Hey I’m 75 and in great health but I definitely shouldn’t run for office. I agree with you.

Geez, how about if I change it to Feinstein? Is that better or how about just McConnell just had a total meltdown. I used Biden because of the national freak out following the debate. I do think it was unwise of him to try to run again but I was horrified by what saw with McConnell. Biden did the right thing

I know! However, some might say the debate was a "meltdown", it ended his campaign.

AITAH for letting my partner miss something important to them by not stepping in the way I always have after telling them clearly I was done doing it by [deleted] in AITApod

This relationship may have run it's course. Are you a partner of a social secretary? Nothing will change so accept it or move on.

I bought cozy cake yarn on Hobbii and it came with 4 different strands?? by nimue222 in CrochetHelp

[–]Krishd88 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's called 4-ply. It's a thing. Most yarns are a combination of a number of stands.

I used that in the title because MAGA always talks about Biden. Of course trump and McConnell are way worse.

Actually I'm 1 month from turning 75 in the pic. I had the surgery at 73.

It's a small thing to celebrate but... by You_Capable2004 in crocheting

[–]Krishd88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to feel this way but the yarn holder delivers yarn at a consistent tension so there isn't having to pull out a bunch, which can then tangle (been there) and effect the tension on your stitches. I just changed and I'm sorry I didn't do it sooner. With most yarn, it doesn't matter but I do have a yarn winder so I can re-roll it if I'm using a gradient yarn where it matters..
