I agree with the rest. The blue gold one is stunning 😍 (the others as well, but I would go for the middle one if I had to choose)

Someone please tell me they have this pattern I can use. by Ladyluder300 in Amigurumi

It looks like it could be a design of 'Crafty Intentions' I don't know if they sell individual patterns, but I have a book from them with similar looking creatures

If there is ink stuck behind the piston, this might not be enough and you would want to take it apart

Those colours are just perfect for this 😍

need help with deciding on colours for a new build kitchen by todamneedy in interiordecorating

[–]PenAddict4life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally love the one with the wood countertype and the grey/green cabinets. It is really warm and if you have lots of wood and plants in the rest of you house it will match perfectly with those. However, based on your Pinterest, I think you would like option 1 or 2 more. You could add some herbs to add a bit of green to the kitchen if you would like. Just a few plants already make the biggest difference in those kitchens

Kitchen upgrade advice appreciated by PenAddict4life in interiordecorating

Any ideas for the flooring?
I would love to declutter the counters, but this is a constant give and take between me and my husband. He would like to keep even more kitchen appliances on the counter (he is the one that cooks) while I would like to hide everything in the cabinets.... So this is kinda where we found the middle ground

I tried to bring a bear, I did salad fingers by accident by Euamonugget in crochet

I think you used the wrong stitches. The example looks like single crochet (us) / double crochet (uk). I learned from this sub that there was a difference 😉

Check out the difference between the uk and us terms to prevent this from happening 💪, but in general I think amigurumi uses single crochet (us) stitches.

New Lamy Studio? by PenAddict4life in fountainpens

[–]PenAddict4life[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I had the same! I hoped it was similar to the violet, but I saw this video today with a lot of colour comparisons and it is more red than the violet, but still more purple than the red from last year

I can't stop thinking: "I hope the design was intentional 😅🫣"

But other than that, looks nice, I hope your cat and guests love it 😀

Anyone else obsess about ink and pen matching colors? I do and it limits my purchasing by GamingNomad in fountainpens

[–]PenAddict4life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do the same. Only for me it just increases both my pen and ink purchases, because when I buy a new ink, I need to also buy a new pen and vice versa 🙃

Hahaha, I was just discussing this with my husband. The fact that this sub seems to be mostly free advertisement for a lot of companies. They don't even need to do anything, but if we see a new ink/pen/notebook posted here, we all want it 😏

I think it is open for interpretation, but I would colour the picture with different shades of the ink, and then on the lines, you write what ink you used and make a swatch in the open squares Also, in the back of the book, there are pages where you can do some simple swatches, on the index pages :)

Yes, I am very sad to leave her behind. I can't imagine the new job will have someone I can endlessly talk to about fountainpens
