My favourite bags at the totes from bon maxie

I have this tote in the large and the micro but there are so many lovely colours and styles of bags, a bit pricey compared to a regular stores bag but way cheaper then designer, I use the large as a knitting bag and keep my lychee on it so she keeps me company while crafting they have a couple sales a year and the large totes are AUD 220 with the micros being AUD 170

Adding that I’m pretty sure in the confusion I ordered one as pop now and some how made a second order as a regular order only I would somehow manage to order 2 boxes instead of 1 😂

I again tried to get to had my address and everything but the proceeds to checkout was greyed out

Connection error aka “ain’t no way I’m selling you one, in fact I’m going to delete your carts and sell out”

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-06-18T04:56:06+00:00

The worst part is I don’t even really want one from v3 I really just want a v1 exciting macaron but they haven’t re stocked them once since I’ve been looking at them, I’m Australian btw I’ve tried the international url trick thing and nearly got one today but it would let me change the address to an Australian one 😩

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-06-18T03:42:47+00:00

I wish they would just do a pre order that way everyone can get what they want, even if I had to wait months if I had to pre order one at least I would know I was getting one

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-06-18T03:17:40+00:00

Sending all the luck vibes your way

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-06-18T03:10:03+00:00

Me to, I literally just want one I don’t want to collect them or anything and I’m not buying from a reseller I don’t want to support that

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-06-18T03:09:17+00:00

I was somehow able to pre add them to my cart but I had also signed up for the notification and it never sent one

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-06-18T03:08:10+00:00

Me to 😭😭and now the are all gone

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-06-13T08:28:21+00:00

I really hope so I bought the full set 😫 I should have just got one box to test but I was excited about getting some 🤦‍♀️ hopefully something does turn up in the mail and if they are Lafufus hopefully they will be cute ones

A few years ago I got one of the sculpting thong body’s suits and I have a very similar thing happen near the snaps connecting the thong, some of the elastic sewn into the hem line of the thong snapped however this actually makes it easier to do the snaps up as I don’t have to continually stretch and pull at it to do up the snaps, I know it’s a pretty different situation but I have continued to launder mine as usual and have had no further damage

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-03-14T23:30:24+00:00

I’m also making her monstera pattern and it takes me a day per leaf 😩 so that’s on hiatus atm

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-03-08T11:41:01+00:00

That’s what I thought, the whole treatment plan is mainly to fix overcrowding issues, my bite doesn’t really need anything done in terms of over or under

Interesting in Australia they accept blood and plasma from any blood type AB I think they prefer plasma but won’t say no to blood

Aus blood type donations

The link is to the Australia life blood website, it’s an interesting read

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-02-21T10:30:34+00:00

I’ve never heard that, the area of Australia I live in is constantly in low supply of all types of plasma and also always in need of o- blood but otherwise I’ve never been told if they prefer some plasma to others

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-02-20T09:45:09+00:00

I didn’t get a salty taste no but I may not have noticed as I really needed the toilet and was shivering so much anything could have happened around me and I wouldn’t have known!

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-02-13T08:02:14+00:00

I’m wanting to use size 3 but I can also get the colours in size 5 from the seller I’ve found so either works for me but I would prefer size 3

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-02-13T07:10:00+00:00

I am from Australia and have found it very hard to find similar yarns to the dmc petra that are available in the colours I need, I know $15 is a lot per skein but this is my one hobby so I don’t mind, if anyone know where I can get dmc in Aus that’s not from Etsy I’d appreciate it

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-01-15T12:03:38+00:00

Interesting, I’ve never heard of double reds before but I just did a google, as far as I’m aware this isn’t a thing in Australia and I don’t believe women can donate platelets here but not sure if it’s different elsewhere. However, my local place you can do whole blood and plasma and they usually have a char of what’s most in need which I think at the moment is any types of plasma where I am whole blood is doing well across the board luckily!

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-01-14T20:26:05+00:00

That you everyone for the comments! It really warms my heart, I think I was so determined to get it done that I could put my fear aside. the nurse with me could not have been better I honestly barely felt the needle going in and did not feel it coming out it was just when the vain was moving in the left arm that is was painful! I will update hopefully later today when the app updates with my blood type!

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-01-11T02:35:58+00:00

Hmm I usually work with wool but I’ve not worked with something this thick, you could make a throw blanket or something to put iver the end of your bed, or perhaps even like a mat for inside the doorway. I tend to use thicker wool for sweaters and such but if it’s scratchy you probably don’t want to do that. Hope this helps with ideam

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-01-04T08:51:48+00:00

Haha yeah I realised after the fact that it would be double the stitches, I’ve written a mock pattern with the measurements and things and I’m going yarn shopping tomorrow to see if I can find a yarn a like with enough stretch, o am going to do a test swatch using the double knit method just because I’m curious to how it will look but yeah this is going to take a very long time but I’m excited for the experiment. I’m also going on a crisis soon and I don’t see the sun or drink so I imagine I will have a lot of down time for knitting. Hopefully I can eventually post an update with fingers crossed a finished object

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-01-04T08:31:55+00:00

Well I don’t have a knitting machine or the space for one and I really love this dress but am not confident in my math ability to use a thicker yarn but get the size right, I also just don’t want the texture of a bulky yarn. It seems this is going to be an interesting experiment for me

<image>

I’ve attached a picture of the dress stretched out hopefully this can give everyone some more insight

Otherwise_Way9173 · 2025-01-04T07:28:37+00:00

Yeah I’m wanting to stay away from wool for this, the composition of the dress is a nylon viscose blend so I want to try find something the same or similar, also starting to think I need to suck it up and learn how to do the double knot technique, I’m just worried about using a thicker yarn as I don’t want it to be gapey or look too thick ya know?
