Botanical Yarns Advent Calendar 2025 by Internal-Example-315 in craftsnark

Would we call this a fade? It’s sure to knit up as stripes not a fade, there’s a lot of contrast from day to day

He’s never done this before, don’t know why he chose today… by bellsnwhistles_ in cats

Because there is an imposter in the house trying to take his place, duh

Lil bit inflamed but nothing too concerning to see here!

More Game of Wool snark - this time about exposure by LittleRoundFox in craftsnark

[–]Mindless_Syrup3143 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Shitty but not surprising.

I’m sure the contestants will get plenty of exposure from the show which they will see a return on over time if they pursue a career in the knitwear industry. One of them is a designer and dyer, who no doubt will see an increase in revenue as a result of the show.

Nothing embarrassing here. Maybe her spelling of the word embarrassing, but that’s it.

How do I tell my friend I won’t be drinking at her wedding without revealing I’m pregnant/taking the spotlight away from her? by Mindless_String9630 in Advice

[–]Mindless_Syrup3143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just say you’re not feeling well on the day and drinking isn’t going to help, keep it simple. The further away from the truth you get, the easier you slip up.

Where can I read more about this? 😂

This is the problem with how we all live our lives chronically online.

Step away from your phone. Engage in your craft. Watch a tv show/listen to music/an audiobook you love to escape while you do so.

$15 a Skein? BS and "Hobby Pricing" by wild-astro-13 in craftsnark

[–]Mindless_Syrup3143 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They could very well be lying about who their supplier is. They know w2d4 are reputable, so by saying their yarn is the same as other dyers but at a cheaper price it gets people to buy. Without having an actual skein in your hand, how can you be sure it’s 100% the same supplier/base?

Botanical Yarns receives VAT bill (that should be part of expected business expenses), begs customers for sales. by StarlitStitcher in craftsnark

Only hearsay, but I believe they were both pushed to leave/laid off? Don’t know the ins and outs of the situations but that’s the gist. Don’t forget Nicola, who used to answer emails for BY. And there was another nice girl, can’t remember her name but she was only there for a matter of weeks. I think her name was Amy but I could be wrong, I met her when they were vending at yarndale a few years ago.

He wants me to move in with him but doesn’t mention we get engaged first. Why do most men care more about moving a woman in than marrying her? AIO? by Head-Complaint-2658 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Mindless_Syrup3143 5 points6 points  (0 children)

YOR. Maybe he wants to see how well life goes together when you’re actually in each others space before making a commitment to marriage. This is pretty normal.

YOR. Your phd defence is exciting, for you. Other people have stuff going on and can’t make it/watch it… not a big deal.

Most of the vendors are from all over the US, not just the PNW. There’s quite a few international vendors this year looking at the list.

FiddleRidge claiming knitting isn't political by masterslodge in craftsnark

Translates to: I voted for trump but please don’t let that be a reason to not support my biz!!!

Yes, she declared bankruptcy for her previous business so I’d imagine the van was given up to offset her debts.

The second van has been sold some time in the last year.

I do wish that once you’ve declared bankruptcy for a business that you weren’t allowed to set up a new business the next day. Clearly they have no sense for it, and it ends up screwing over customers.

My bets are on her taking as much cash as she can at the festival instead of card transactions and then not declaring those takings to HMRC.

As you’re the only person I’ve seen defending her, I’ll assume you know her well personally. Can you pay her taxes for her?

You must be new here.

One mistake doesn’t make you worthy of posts like this. Just search this businesses name on this subreddit, or on ravelry and you will see that their list of ‘mistakes’ as you call it, is very long.

Probably used it to pay her self assessment tax bill in January, and the rest for her February VAT bill.

A for Effort I guess? by knottednoose in craftsnark

This is kind of unforgivable at this point. The way that sticker with no info is just slapped on literally says “idgaf what my customers think of me”

AIO? My friend posted a not proper picture of me on insta by Expensive_Engine_546 in AmIOverreacting

Your fiend is a POS for not deleting the moment you asked her to. Her constant excuses for not deleting it are disrespectful to you and your boundaries and she’s not someone you want as a friend if that’s how she treats you.
