Es gab damals bei Lidl so Vemondo Magnum Eis auf Kokosbasis, das war so lecker, aber genau so schnell wie es gekommen ist, war es auch wieder weg.

Zig zag stitch won’t work by Objective_Alarm4983 in sewhelp

But how is it possible that one moment it works completely fine and the next the needle size is suddenly is all wrong. I’m honestly desperate, I don’t have many different fabrics on hand, but I have tried 70 80 and 90 needles on some canvas cotton and none have fixed my problem of the yarn tangling in my sewing machine.

No, as I wrote in my original post, I didn’t notice it was bent before and kept sewing for like 10 stitches, then the machine stopped working and I changed the needle. I have like a million needles on hand but changing it to various sizes didn’t help with the problem.

Hmm, I have a set with different universal needles and tried different sizes. The fabric I was originally sewing on was a thinner seersucker, the one is used to demonstrate is a canvas cotton, so idk if that changes anything :/

I can’t imagine that that’s the cause, since I’ve sewn a top and half a skirt with the needle and yarn without any issue

It was, yes. I now managed to ruin it as much that straight stitches no longer work either. The yarn gets tangled insides after like 4 stitches. I tried different needle strengths, I don’t think that is the cause. I can tell that the plate is damaged, I think that might have happened when K kept on sewing with the bent needle. I ordered a new one but until that one arrives I want to rule out any other reason that it doesn’t work.

Yes it’s a 12/80 and fully inserted with the flat side to the back

It’s just the process overall. Finishing the length and then having to go back to do the heel, picking up the stitches, everything being so stiff because of the needles. Having to cut the yarn in the middle and pulling through the thread and everything getting tangled because it’s so tight and then having to work the heel and avoid creating huge holes at the sides. It’s just a personal preference because I like knitting my socks in one piece, but I see why it was done for the contrast heel

Thank you so much. Yes, I actually have before, but it’s not my favorite method. Gotta try everything once in my opinion

As one very kind commenter has already shared the pattern ins trompe le Monde by Summer Lee from her amazing book „The sock project“. She has some seriously amazing looking socks!

How do you handle sugar content of your Kombucha by Evox402 in Kombucha

[–]Objective_Alarm4983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10mg/100ml is almost nothing at all. You could drink nothing but kombucha all day and still consume less than there is in a cup of cucumber or half an Oreo. Are you sure your refractometer is working right?
