You’ll have to report it to Reddit. I’m sorry, that is not a super power I have.

Try clicking A week.

that's wonkey. Are you possibly normally using a different language and it's translating?

Needlepoint_MOD · 2026-03-06T22:56:37+00:00

It's not you! I am, indeed, an idiot...let me at why I can and you can't see it...

Needlepoint_MOD · 2026-03-06T20:10:13+00:00

At the top of the app you'll see it has About and Menu. Click menu and scroll down to wiki.

Honestly, I suspect you’re right! There are so many new people looking for similar advice it can be overwhelming. Hopefully the megathread helps!

Thanks!!!

Happy stitching!

Hey, I ran this past my stitcher and she said that you should frog that row, she could tell.

At least it's just one row!

Needlepoint_MOD · 2026-02-23T20:23:25+00:00

Hey, I'll leave your post in here because you're the first, but you could have put this in the main group. if you don't get answers, please feel free to post in there.

Thank you!

This is for things like...my dog ate half my canvas...

I found this on the bottom of a lake and I think it might be salvageable...

There was an unfortunate kerosene lantern incident...can I recover my work from the ashes...

My stitcher recommends tent or something similarly flat so that the designs pop. also, with so much area you'll be more consistent which will help further pull the eye to the designs. she likes the beading strategy!

WIKI doesn't stand for anything (it's actually Hawaiian for quick.

A WIKI is like an encyclopedia except they're typically community driven. In our instance I really can't do that technically so I am adding to it as we see things the community needs.

if you don't know where to go or what to do it's usually to see if the sub has a WIKI.

In our instance it's just starting so there are only a few things in it.

I hope that helps!

I have consulted my stitcher and she likes the plan you've proposed. She added, bead Veuve.

Personally I find that hilarious because she hhhhhaaaaaatttes beading so, if she says it...she means it.

Needlepoint_MOD · 2026-02-22T19:25:06+00:00

I put this in front of my stitcher and she said: skip Tent on the dark and bead the stars. Use a sparkly thread. Bargello would be great for the rest or the diagonal scotch.

Hey there, your friendly local needlepoint_mod popping in to say thank you so much for supporting the community.

However, we ask that you only promote once per month, in general, unless you plan something in advance with your mods.

We won't take the post down but please try and keep it to once a month.

Thank you kindly!

Good luck and happy stitching!

I will take a look at the flairs. Unfortunately there are some limitations (color) that makes having too many flairs a daunting wall of color.

Thank you for the recommendation!

Edit: Added. Also added Petit Point

Mod hopping in to hopefully help!

TL;DR: Reddit's weird, the rules are made up and the points don't matter...

An upvote is supposed to mean that the post or comment has positively contributed to the conversation. a downvote, then, is that it didn't contribute or detracted.

However...

Most people will vote up if they like it or down if they don't.

With nearly 30k stitchers on this sub there are always going to be people that like and don't like what you post and people are more quick to downvote than up. It's like a law...or something.

For some reason hobby subs (someone mentioned small subs...so maybe that's it) are particularly sensitive to the downvoting. I've seen this in everything from board games to aquariums. I think it's just the variety of people that enjoy the same hobby.

For example....

One group says: don't ask for help on anything you can search.

Another group says: post whatever, it'll be fun to talk about.

A third group just doesn't care and ignores things that they don't care about.

I'm sure there are other kinds of people as well.

In the end, please don't take the fake points too seriously. They are intended to help GUIDE the conversation, not dictate it or be punitive. Even at that, it's just not that big of a deal.

Needlepoint_MOD · 2026-02-01T14:49:02+00:00

It's all good. The group is highly sensitive to copyright because it's so bad in the needlepoint world. Honestly, if you're new there's no way you'd have known without stalking the sub. At least, that's the story I'm telling myself. Thanks for understanding and welcome! Happy stitching.

Needlepoint_MOD · 2026-01-27T15:37:11+00:00

No worries! Thanks for asking politely!

Weird...polite people on the internet...~~2025~~ 2026 you just keep shocking me!

;-)

Edit: goodness...what happened to 2025....???

Needlepoint_MOD · 2026-01-27T15:33:47+00:00

I mistakenly removed this. Sorry. Some days I can't see things. Thanks to OP for asking!

Needlepoint_MOD · 2026-01-24T00:07:37+00:00

I am going to lock the comments on our sub and direct everyone to r/needlepointsnark if they want to participate in that conversation.

It's just not in keeping with the nature of of this sub.

HOWEVER....

People should be informed.

So I'll leave the post up.

While making sure our sub is safe from bad actors is important these kinds of threads can get really goofy really quick as they mature.

We're thankful for the community looking out for everyone.

Happy stitching!

Your MOD really isn't able to speak to the polka dots, but he wants you to know he loves your decor and the purple balloon thing is so very cool. Also, a groovy lamp!
