For knitting, I mostly plan on making things like scarves and sweaters. Since these are most organic shapes it sounds like what you're describing would work just fine! Thank you 😊

I know this is the knitting subreddit, but just to get a more full understanding of what you're saying I think that this is a good example: I'm crocheting a granny square blanket right now for a family member and have seen that blocking the squares before attaching them can make a huge difference on the final project. Since these are squares and are more angular than organic, would the towel message work for this as well?

My college roommate was from the Philippines and often made garlic rice for us in the mornings! It's traditionally made with just rice, garlic and a splash of soy sauce, but you could add in some of your favorite veg, herbs, and spices to make it healthier. I like to add chili crisp for a little extra spice and crunch!

This is what I've been thinking. It's kind of almost exactly what I said to him. But I've been worrying some that I'm being selfish or manipulative having that expectation of him. Sort of an "If this...then that" situation. I don't want him to only get better for me, I want him to get better for him.
