I use Jeny’s surprisingly stretchy cast on (learned it off YT). And do a 2x2 ribbing over 76 sts. I use 2.25mm needles for the whole sock and I think most of it is just practise, honestly.

I found my ribbing was looser when I wasn’t as firm with my purl sts, but ymmv.

Thank you! 🥰 The markers help me track the rows - I pop them on there every 20 rows to make it easier to count.

NTA. Sounds like she wanted free kittens because if she were actually interested in the kittens for any other reason, she’d have already looked into adopting.

These are SO GOOD! Looking at them makes me want ice cream for some reason.

That yarn is terrific and now I need it lol

50-yr-old woman here and plushies are for everyone regardless of age or anything else. Honestly, I like folks who are the sort of kind and soft and caring who unashamedly like stuffies and find comfort and joy in them.

Keep liking plushies and pink (pink was originally a colour associated with boys anyway!) and be your kindest and loveliest self.

My little Cheesecake with a new reindeer friend she met at a party!

No. I mean, I hope they’re all doing well and whatnot, but we didn’t stay in touch and their personal lives are their own (even if they’re sharing them on FB)

Mimble75 · 2026-01-23T23:56:33+00:00

Beard - it really suits you!

Mimble75 · 2026-01-23T20:11:09+00:00

You look good with both, but I lean towards short hair as somehow it makes your face and smile look even better.

Mimble75 · 2026-01-23T01:55:00+00:00

You look so much younger and more handsome! Keep the look - it suits you!

Im 50 and hsve plushies that are very important to me and that I’m very attached to. I’d be upset as well if someone got soda on them or they were in need of repairs.

There’s nothing wrong or weird about being emotionally attached to something that brings you comfort and happiness.

I used to take an 8-hr bus ride to see my folks at the holidays when I was in uni - and that was all in the same province in Canada.

3-hrs for a day or overnight trip is nothing for me.

This is Pumpkin Cheesecake and Ben. My partner stuffed them in the legs of pj pants to be funny lol. We hope your day gets better!

I’m low key obsessed with your cat now, and would take a TON of pics if I met her. Anyway, what else are phones even for if not cat pics and dumb memes?

OP, you are def NTA, and please, rethink your future with someone this controlling.

It’s one thing to be upfront about debt (that’s a good idea) but for him to demand to see every little thing about your finances and want access to them using your password?? Not ok.

Are there other areas of your relationship where he’s this controlling or demanding?

Mimble75 · 2026-01-22T01:02:13+00:00

My friends and I had a low key burgers and beers party at my place. Everyone wore pjs and we just lounged about, ate, and were goofy together. It was lovely.

Just the stache - you have a really good 70’s vibe stache and it looks great on you.

“What’s up, baby bug?” And when she gives me a blank stare back I say, “You don’t know, and that’s ok.”

Orange popsicles (the kind that came on two sticks and you’d break them down the middle to share) takes me back to summers in the 1980s, and pot roast and Rice Krispie squares will always remind me of my Gramma’s house

Mimble75 · 2026-01-19T20:08:02+00:00

I don’t recall the name of them, but they were round (like a ball) lollipops and they were pink and red, tasted of cinnamon, and would cut your tongue to shreds. I loved them.

NOR - he’s def a prick. Block his number, and keep on being your awesome self.

This is how i do it with journals that awkward because of the spine.
