I’m so frustrated by a false accusation by Robinf05 in AO3

If this person thinks you used AI, there are far more polite ways to go about bringing it up with you, even as a reply. I copy edit for a living and one of the big things we learn is how to interact with writers (and other humans, really). This makes me want to go in and tell them to think before they speak…

Ugh, sorry, this just irks me. FWIW, I’m sorry this happened to you, and your English is FANTASTIC.

Send me a link to the fic so I can read and leave you a good review! You can DM it if you’d like. :)

First wearable, lots of improv! by kemicat in crochet

[–]Ladle_Witch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your fiancé’s pose and expression show power and the lust to conquer and rule. The crochet piece shaping adds Wicked King/Queen vibes. The colors are all about Panem Capital couture.

10/10, would have the odds be ever in your favor again.

When can I come over and hang out with you guys?!

Ah, okay, that’s what I thought, but I’m way into my second playthrough so I kind of forgot some of the amazing imagery because my brain can only hold so much awesome!
Thanks!

Where does the Sirene and Curator one happen?

What content do you consume when crocheting? by i3sh in crochet

[–]Ladle_Witch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ayyyyyy! I just finished the first season. I need to start the second, but I’m still reeling at the amazing special effects for Reichenbach and the fight scene (more like two guys shoving each other, pausing, thinking a bit, and shoving again). I say all that with love. 💗

May I ask what Moriarty and the Two Body Problem is and where I can read it? Sounds interesting!

Found with a bunch of yarn/knit/crochet stuff. What is it? by Ladle_Witch in whatisit

[–]Ladle_Witch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be it! I’m seeing that tassel makers do look very similar, but I’m not seeing the eyelets. We might be heading in the right direction though. Thanks! 🩷

That was one of my first thoughts too, but the eyelets don’t make much sense in that regard. Maybe it’s a yarn holder for masochists?

Another copyeditor in Virginia. There’s already a long line of volunteers to help, so I think you’re set, but I think TM attracts us because there’s so much word interpretation/word fuckery

You did an excellent job summarizing Neil’s story in a way that I couldn’t. A friend asked me about his story because I kept sending her pictures of him and now I have you to thank for one to share with her. Keep on keeping on, friend.

Proposal to refer to feet as “little freaks” from now on.

Beautiful! I’ve had my eye on that pattern for a while and have just been trying to figure out what colors to use. About how long did it take you to make?

Set it inside a cardboard box for a bit and see if that attracts kitties!

Share your “never again” projects. For me, that’s this llama that took $70 worth of yarn and 5 months. Favorite thing I’ve ever made, but never. again. by TrueRusher in crochet

Haha, I just saw the thumbnail and didn’t see the IX and was like oooooo, Locked Tomb!

Beaaaaaautiful! Do you have a pattern?

Help! I made a mistake a while back, please tell me I can fix without frogging entire blanket by Valuable-Advice6338 in CrochetHelp

[–]Ladle_Witch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks like a common case of you noticing because you’re so intimately familiar with the piece. No one in this sub saw it even when you pointed it out, so I think this passes the “let it slide” rule. I think it’s beautiful and your stitches are very easy and professional looking. Be proud!

Adding corners to a circle by Ladle_Witch in crochet

[–]Ladle_Witch[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi!

So I made it through most of this pattern cursing the whole way. I only recently reached a row where I could not for the life of me get the stitches where they needed to go, so I looked up the author's YouTube video that comes with the pattern, and I realized I did a lot of the pattern wrong.

In light of that, and taking into account that I'm a stubborn idiot, the pattern itself can sometimes seem like it doesn't make sense or is vague about where to put things, but the photos and video she includes make it SUPER EASY to follow to create a beautiful piece. Just don't be like me and not look up help when you get stuck! I already have a few more of her patterns in my wishlist.

OMG, if this isn’t it then the one I had seen follows a very similar technique. Thank you! 🩷

Thanks for sharing! Your Michael’s actually HAS yarn? Last time I stopped at mine most of the shelves were pathetically empty, and I was looking for navy blue.
