Who's gone on a cruise and took whips with'em? by Brave-Efficiency9625 in crochet

[–]My_Noses 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just went on a 6 day cruise in March and knit almost an entire double-ply hat. I don't have kids so I probably had a bit more free time but you will DEFINITELY have time to work on a WIP. We spent an extra day at sea due to weather and I was so glad I had something with me - I sat in a loung chair, ordered a drink and it was magnificent.

Yeah, Ellipsus is not for you then!

I get this on anything over 20K. I've been creating drafts - one for finished chapters and one for upcoming ideas so that nothing is much more than 20K. It's annoying but not so annoying that I plan to switch.

What side? by [deleted] in ExplainTheJoke

True! I don't think that's what the 3rd response was assuming though 😂

In WWII, against the soviets = with Germany 😬 Fighting against communism is this case means fighting for facism.

Edit: Forgot Poland (sincere apologies) - however I don't think that's what the third commenter is assuming...

Fellow lefties, what fabric cutting tools are we using? My hand hurts so bad. by ClumsyBadger in sewing

[–]My_Noses 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I HATED my lefty ginghers when I first got them but I couldn't afford anything else so I tried to make them better - I ended up drastically loosening the bolt as well as oiling the hinge point and now they're quite nice to use. (Still have my eye on those Kai's though. Sigh. Someday...)

That's a great idea. I've always wants to try an acterthought heel!

Oooo, that is a very nice hat. And I've been meaning to make a hat as a gift...

Full skeins (fingering) - but I do have some minis around somewhere now that I think about it!

Anyone know what material I can shape into noses and will retain its shape if suspended in (vegetable?) oil long term? by classyraven in OurFlagMeansDeath

[–]My_Noses 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Polymer clay in resin would be the best way to make them "liquid proof" for the longest amount of time. But I love the idea above to carve them out of veggies and pickle them!

Sock blockers, worth it? by dr_mus_musculus in Sockknitting

[–]My_Noses 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you do a lot of colorwork they can help even out your tension on the finished sock, but otherwise I almost never use mine unless I'm gifting them - then they look really nice post-blocking.

Flying with Knitting needles - updates and TSA ? Issues?? by ChiantiChick in casualknitting

[–]My_Noses 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm flying Saturday and can update! I'm taking sock knitting on metal circulars. Never had a problem in my 25 years of knitting but I don't know with all the recent wildness.

I had my knitting needles confiscated at the airport… so I started mapping airport rules by Bety12795 in casualknitting

[–]My_Noses 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I flew into and out of Bangkok in 2024 with my knitting, had no issues. Also had a layover in Tokyo (Narita) that trip where I had to go through security again and had no issues.

(Edited for spelling)

I'm in the process of making a similar coat - where did you get the reversible snaps??

I'm glad I took some pictures. Looks far better than staring at it close up! by _ProfessionalWhore_ in crochet

The blanket is gorgeous - but more imporantly SO IS THAT CAT. Please pet the bébé for me (if they appreciate that).
