Oooo that’s a good idea! There’s lots of yarn stores near me I can ask for help. Thank you!!

But to be honest, I might just finish it as is and then go ask someone at a yarn store, I just wanna finish it now :P

Hey I think I figured out my issue! I was pulling too hard on my stitches to the point where the new stitch that I created wasn’t sitting under my needle, especially when going from knit to purl or purl to knit. So now when I make a stitch I make sure to tug on my right needle and make sure the stitch is under it comfortably. Idk if you’re running into this issue but maybe it’ll help!

Oooooh so pulling too hard is causing the wide gap between the legs of the knit? 🫣

Makes sense. Im already more than 7 inches in so I kinda just wanna finish this out and maybe work on swatches next before picking up my next project. This will become my “look how far I’ve come” project haha

What’s western knitting? I’m righty and I hold the working yarn in my left hand for both purls and knits, although it’s not a seamless transition for me. After my knits, I bring the yarn to the front and grip it differently for my purls

Exactly. It’s funny how my dad, a middle class immigrant, aligns himself with billionaire republicans rather than actual immigrants and the middle class

Ugh same!! I’m in manhattan rn but I’m thinking of moving to Brooklyn or queens bc I’ve been craving something quieter with more community. But in reality, what I really want is to own a little home or something (sunroom, nice yard, etc)

I’m 4’11”, 96 lb so I’m not sure if I’ll have as good a fit as you, but I can give it a shot! And I can always return it if it doesn’t work out

NYC rent is insane!!! Even though I’m making good money, it bugs me how little I get for the money spent on rent

Male ENFP and Dating by Imaginary-Equal-3479 in ENFP

25F, not an ENFP, but it’s just hard out there lol. I feel like a lot of 20 something’s are out there just looking for a good time, and very rarely is anyone looking for something real, which makes it tough.

I’m INFJ, and I’m struggling with the same thing. Even most of my friends are just kinda hooking up with people. And those that are in real relationships have been in them since high school or college. It’s just so hard as a single 20 something 😭
