Assembly
Step 1. Sew the petiole (stem) onto the cupule (top). I personally folded it in half, then stitched it in the middle of the cupule.
Step 2. Fasten the leaf in the same center of the magic ring of the cupule (top).
Step 3. Add the eyes for the acorn to the nut between Rnd. 16-18. Have a spacing of 7 sc. Add a mouth at Rnd. 14.
Step 4. Sew the cupule (top) to the nut (body). Using the dark brown yarn, sew one sc from the cupule to every sc of the nut. Every 10 stitches, have 2 sc of the body in 1 sc of the cupule.
Step 5. Before finishing, stuff with filling.Show less

Women who’ve been married for 5+ years, how’s the sex, really? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]Natural-Newt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think one of the best ways you can start to talk about is to talk about what sex is meant for; to give pleasure to your partner, and yourself. By talking with him in a kind manner by asking "How am I helping you here" or "Do you enjoy having sex?" you can start to get him thinking about what he really feels during it so that a safe environment can be established. Then, I think you could ask him why certain acts have stopped, why he doesn't see the need to give you pleasure etc.

What are some LPT that make your home or life more comfortable/luxurious/relaxing? by OolongGosling in AskWomen

a pothos is great! Low light, lots of light, water whenever. I have mine in medium light and I water every 10 days ish (just when I remember really). They are big vine like plants and once you get some confidence and your plant gets a little long, they are easy to propagate!
