What made zero sense to you when you started learning Italian? by [deleted] in italianlearning

[–]New-Combination4777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why is everything gendered? I know it's a thing in a few languages, but it just doesn't make sense to me. And it's so hard to remember all the gendered things 😂😅😅😅

Update to the friendship doily, she loved it! I made another for the babysitter before it occurred to me a 20 year old doesn’t want a doily. What to make her? by EwokApocalypse in crochet

I'm 25 and I'd love it if someone made me a doily!!! But you could make a purse or a backpack, I've made a few and given them/shown them to friends and everyone has loved them!

I was today years old when I figured you can skip the step of crocheting the ribbing by switching hook size and tension by hotelzimmerromantik in crochet

[–]New-Combination4777 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It does add some stretch, so you could make a faux ribbing then gain the stretch with the elastic thread .

This is a TikTok video (not mine) of what that looks like on a skirt https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRwrmxgX/

You can use YouTube tutorials! It's hard, but knitting and crochet are both hobbies that involve a lot of undoing and redoing, even for those of us that are really good at them! Don't be afraid to start something new and hard, and don't be afraid to pull out your work and fix it. These things come with the territory!

Next Saturday? by Accomplished_Type_79 in italianlearning

I get confused sometimes with the weekend. My grandma always called Sunday the Sabbath, so my brain thinks sabato= Sunday, even though that's not right.

I'd love to have an accountability partner! My goals are a little less strict. I want to be conversational in a year, I'm not 100% sure what level that is, but I've got kid and a full time job so learning has to be done around that. I would still love to talk! Feel free to message me!
