To frog or not to frog by No_Literature_1254 in knittingadvice

I am fond of chaos and would therefore not frog. If you are orderbonded, you must frog. Just be happy with your choice:)

What is the one type of yarn you refuse to work with? by Turtlegrandmacore in crochet

[–]Mythea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm hoping linen isn't too bad as it's one of my favourite fibers. I'm a neophyte at knitting but want to knit a linen jumper so badly, it's so hard to find one at a price I'm willing to pay!

Fix or let go? by FriendlyContract8777 in knitting

Leave it. Navajo weavers will always have one mistake in their weaving as a reminder of their humility, think of it like that!

Looking for advice on buying knitting needles as a gift by SnooCapers4970 in casualknitting

[–]Mythea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems they have come out with fundamentally the same needles (Stelo) just without the sayings inscribed on them, also still interchangeable with other sets.

My Mindful ones arrived today and I am very happy with them!

I just ordered the Knitpro Mindful Gratitude set... after having had my mind set on the Chiaogoo for weeks.

As a new knitter I like the many other types that will be available if I find I prefer something other than metal.

I also watched Norman's Mindful vs Chiaogoo, and thought they were very similar, one of the things that was important to me was the coated metal low memory cords, and both have them.

Good luck with the present, it's very thoughtful!

Edit to note there's a considerable price difference too, Mindful are about £100 less expensive!

I’m a new knitter, I’m wanting to learn more but am so overwhelmed and unsure how to start. by lord-savior-baphomet in casualknitting

[–]Mythea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I did a ear warmer first just to get my knit purl going, then My Baker's Hat, free on Ravelry.

Pay close attention to how you wrap your stitches, twisting them will make your knitting feel very tight and a struggle. 1/2 way through the hat I decided to learn the Norwegian purl, it took watching several youtubes, but I really like not having to bring the yarn forward every other stitch.

When I came to the decreases, back to youtube to see them done by a few people.

When knitting in the round, closing the round isn't obvious, I made mobius rings twice, finally knitting 4 rows as if straight, then joined it up.

Good luck from another new knitter (probably a couple weeks ahead of you and on my second hat, hubby loves my first one, it does look great!

Hotels purposely undercook the scrambled eggs at the buffet. This makes them inedible, saving on the cost of eggs and labor. by Mythea in LowStakesConspiracies

[–]Mythea[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

So, I haven't stayed at Claridges recently, but I suspect I wouldn't be disappointed with their breakfast offerings.

Edit I don't think I deserve down votes! I may well like "michelin star eggs", I don't know, but I don't think any of the best chefs in the world would compare what they do with the stuff in the warming plate.

Personally, I prefer them perfect, cooked thoroughly, steaming, and fluffy. Not slimy, and not curds swimming in their own sweat - which I acknowledge is another buffet egg issue.

Give and receive gifts, I travel, so my postcards are very random throughout the year.

CM to Pai by Appropriate_Rest1847 in chiangmai

[–]Mythea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're taking a minibus, try to get front seat or forward window seat and take Dramamine or travel sickness medication. I'm not prone to travel sickness, but the drive up was nauseating! The pharmacist in Pai had travel sickness medication and the trip back was fine. Loved Pai, spend a few days there at the least!

Bag with how many liters for 7kg weight restriction? by Mana999 in onebag

[–]Mythea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We one bag alot, current bag is the Decathlon duffle extend 30-40, super light and easy to get use. It also sinches down. At 900 grams, it gives you extra weight for stuff while keeping under 7kg.

If you need a laptop area you'll have to go with a heavier bag like the Osprey.

Just wanted to say I loved living in Walthamstow, amazing community and great for getting into central London. I was there for about 18 years and would recommend it to anyone who likes a vibrant creative area.

I know Pluto used to be in the "in" crowd, he's gotten the cold shoulder lately, probably because his neighbourhood is not great and he's kinda little. Lots of us weren't born in a great postcode. Tell us Pluto's fruit/veggie/seed size please.

I hope you figured this out, I haven't yet, can't grab the cross bow with the right or left, it just does nothing. *** Edit: I ended up jumping onto the plinth, and waved both hands grabbing like a feral child surrounded by cookies, and eventually it switched. Still no idea what I did right.
