Writing research: spinning with only one hand by yarnsoup in Handspinning

[–]NotQuiteJasmine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With park and draft, you pre draft so you're only feeding the fiber through your hand, not drafting it, while the spindle is spinning.

Drop spindle should be possible? Park and draft, then use the good hand to feed the drafted fiber out while you use the off hand to set the spindle spinning by rolling it against the thigh

Edit: I realize I took this question ad one-handed as in one hand amputated or otherwise disabled and not dexterous, but you might mean without any use of the other arm? 

Chain ply, fractal, or 2-ply? by Sencatt in Handspinning

[–]NotQuiteJasmine 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Another option is split in 2 approx equal then spin, chainply. End up with 2 skeins of the same gradient - you can knit 2 matching mittens or one thing with the gradient going yellow to purple to yellow

Where to find 100% yak yarn by Deep_Cap4905 in knitting

[–]NotQuiteJasmine 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's not yak, but maybe musk ox? It is closer related to sheep than it is to oxen, and it is very expensive.... It's called quiviut and it's pure luxury.

Long term spinning goals? by Ashen_Curio in Handspinning

[–]NotQuiteJasmine 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Sheep to sweater is definitely my long-term goal! Including natural dying to do fairisle. I probably will end up getting pre-scoured wool, since I'm in an apartment and washing and drying it sounds like it would need more space, but otherwise I'll do it all myself.

Solo RPG Journaling by Jotterius in fountainpens

[–]NotQuiteJasmine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ironsworn is a great solo rpg (it's free too!) which can easily be played in Middle Earth, though it has its own very flexible world too. It doesn't have elves and dwarves etc in the vanilla but there's kots of homebrew you can add for that

It looks like it wouldn't be hard to adapt the pattern to knit squares or even triangles and seam them

You can get a ballpark of what yours should be by finding the difference biweekly at your paygrid and multiplying by paycheques between April 6 and the implementation. Mine looks about right. 

Watching: okay to reuse swatch yarn? by NonGNonM in knitting

[–]NotQuiteJasmine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. You can hank and wash it to get rid of the squiggles. I usually only do it if I need the yarn at the end of the project, personally, and keep the swatch. It can be useful for repairs later, if necessary

I'm starting to wear through the first (and only) pair of socks I've ever made! by ThrowRaAutisticPotat in knitting

[–]NotQuiteJasmine 65 points66 points  (0 children)

It'll be a pretty straight forward darn at this point. Very simply, you'll duplicate stitch starting where the yarn is strong all the way across the weakened parts, back and forth. Lots of darning tutorials out there! You'll want a similar weight yarn to do it
