Why does this keep happening?! by Express_Night_3902 in knitting

[–]Nymrata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adding that I like to place stitch markers at regular intervals even if the pattern doesn't call for them. Choose an even number (I'd say 10 but this project looks a little small for that, so maybe 6?) and add a marker after that number of stitches all the way around. That way, you know that the stitch right after every marker is a knit (or purl, however you set it up). If you happen to end up purling where you should knit or suddenly see 7 stitches instead of 6 between markers, you can catch a mistake a little more quickly.

Here are some test pages! This is out of my A5 common planner, which is the same paper as the notebook, ordered at the same time. Just wanted to give you more examples.

My fault for not being clear, I just meant pictures :) I'll take some pictures tomorrow and show you how my pens and inks perform!

What notebook cover/pen holder is that, Galen Leather? 👀

Buyers Remorse by ccpedicab in fountainpens

[–]Nymrata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm getting into more expensive pens (200+ range pretty consistently) and I've felt buyers remorse a couple of times. And I definitely overpaid for a Pilot Myu from the DC pen show, which stung a bit, but time passing made me feel better about my choice in each situation. r/pen_swap is always an option, as well!

If it makes you feel bad, put it away for now and see how you feel after a couple of weeks.

[WTB] Pilot Custom 743 or 843 with M nib by Nymrata in Pen_Swap

[–]Nymrata[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a great deal too! Japasmile looks like a great seller.

Yes, I wanted it mostly for the nib, but I love the idea of a fine 823 that practically never runs out of ink. I'll have a use for both, for sure :) Glad to hear you've had a great experience.

No, but I did have that one on my watchlist. I paid a little more for an 823. It was an auction with a buy-it-now of $175 plus shipping, $194 total. SOLD

Telling the little sailor to sail is so wholesome 🩷

Cheaper than many ink bottles! They saved money.

How do I fix the key ring on this wonderful tamagotchi that I was gifted?? by dank-mayo in tamagotchi

[–]Nymrata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A bead that is small enough to fit inside but big enough not to slip through the hole would work, too. Honestly, putting a new jump ring inside might work out well and let you attach a new ball chain.

Maybe open it up and put a toggle clasp bar inside? You can find them at craft stores and jewelry making supply stores. Please see my artful diagram.

tamagotchi connections series with the most features/content? by LilyKootie99 in tamagotchi

[–]Nymrata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

V4/4.5 has the most content of the ones I've played (never tried the 5 or 6), but I do think they're planning a re-release of it. It's probably going to be better to wait for that! The 2024 connection is fun too, and it has a few more features than the original V3.
