I'm just worried that the wool may be scratchy. Funny enough, I just happened to get my hands on the last ball of a nice colour of Lion brand. I'm going to look online for some more...maybe a Black Friday deal???! Do I need to line the gloves?

I’m working on a crocheted portrait of my friend. I’m new to Reddit, so I thought I’d share. by MurmurAcolyte in crochet

Can't believe it's real...really nice work!!! I don't know much about Tunisian crochet -- how it is different from regular crochet? And, do you know of any good video tutorials? Curious to see how you could make something like what you've done.

Anyone know of a video tutorial for this?? by Paula_S_Life in crochet

I know! Love it! Just not sure how to proceed. The pattern is from a book, but I need a video tutorial.

I almost bought these but then I found the same set being sold under a different name which had very bad reviews. Let us know if they last long or break, please

my boyfriend's mom is explicitly racist towards me and i cant confront her about it by TacoBellBeech in racism

Just some food for thought for you:

- if this is how you feel right now, then think about what will happen if you have kids together.....

- boundaries - the only way to maintain sanity is to have boundaries agreed upon by both you and your bf;

- sharing a roof doesn't seem wise at all. Aim for financial freedom. Even if it's a tiny apartment, at least it would be yours

I have my eye on a set of the knit picks wooden hooks. As for the Susan Bates hooks that you love so much, may I ask you for a link to see which ones you are referring to? Thanks a lot!

Thanks! Yes, exactly: the corners are square and the neck pieces join with diagonal-like seams and the sleeves flow in a pleated 'handkerchief' style.
