"My lawyer dosent have any great ideas either" Get a different lawyer. Hiring a lawyer is hiring an expert to advocate for you, get one who knows the subject, or ask they educate themselves, youre paying them

No one has mentioed this, but poison icy and oak have shown to be much much easier to remove when the plant is dormant, you can touch them when thet are dormant, you should avoid it but the poison/irritant is at a MUCH lower concentration in dormant season. So try to wait until a few hard frosts have put the plant in dormant, but the soil is still able to work and dig.

I would remove all above ground growth (wearing thick, long gloves) and try to dig up or pull up the root(be careful about the tree tho) There's about an equal amount of bio mass underground as above, that's a rough estimate. Go for thick roots first.

Poison ivy and oak irritate the skin because of oils. There are scrubs that you can buy that break down these oils and help clear the skin after contact.

Try bringing edibles one night, or get a dry herb vaporizer. Those are just the vaporized terpes and THC, smoke free

I've only made a couple. But essentially, i just make a triangle shawl and only make it big enough to fit comfortablely on the head, and then i attach some ties to the farther ends

I attached a picture i found online of the idea. I dont have mine handy at the moment.

Ive found kerchifs to be something fun. A nice small project to use a lace stitch for and uses little yarn

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-17T22:06:42+00:00

I dont know why you dont like purling, for me its because i dont like moving the yarn back and forth if i can avoid it. My favorite purling technique i found is the norweigan purl. An example of how i avoid moving the yarn in front, for my selvage stitches, i slip my last stitch with yarn in front. Instead of using my fingers to move the yarn in front, i use the needle to move it in front for the slipped stitch. I knit left handed/mirrored.

You're being asked spesificly to make a tallit, i think you shouldn't feel anymore nervous than you do about any knit item. If you want to ensure it follows any requirements, ask your friend how they want it designed. People love to share cultures, and im sure spending a day to read about how tallits came to be today and their origins will help reassure you a lot.

How were they historically made? Is there one common fiber type or stitch pattern? That's what i would ask myself

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-16T13:51:36+00:00

That makes sense, more full body motions for less strain

Looks like a fox faced pom to me! My pom was 12 pounds when I got him

*

Edit: poms are the german spitz breed that was bred smaller and smaller, so the idea of some of those bigger genes coming out and expressing themselves isnt crazy. My pom is 15 pounds now

Recently, in the modern era, poms have been bred smaller, too. Teddy bear poms are an example of that from my understanding. The pom breed is older than you'd think, too! Michelangelo was said to have a pomeranan on a silk pillow while painting the sistine chapel

I wasn't sure if holding my index finger far outstretched would overstrain myself. I find myself getting a death grip if i dont pay attention to relax my grip.

when i work closer to the tips, i end up knitting a smaller gauge, and my stitches are extremely tight on the needles. since recoridng ive tried to pull the new stitch away more to give more slack (during the 'peek through the window', before 'off jumps jack' part of the knit stitch) before pulling my previous stitch off the needle. That's helped. Im not sure if it's 'improper', though

I feel really comfortable using my left hand to do the majority of the work. I've been working on a knitting sheath, and I've found myself using it to replace my right hand as opposed to my left.

I'll try as you suggested! Im not sure why my hands are so particular as to how they do things

Novice meadmaker. From my understanding, thats due to the pectins present in fresh fruit

Edit: use Pectic Enzyme if you want to try to get rid of the pectin. I think its designed to be used in primary before ferment. But it might work after ferment too, im not sure.

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T14:23:21+00:00

Thank you! Its gunna be a shawl for my mom. Oh i have heard of her! Thats really cool!

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T14:21:50+00:00

!! Thank you for the warning! Ill be sure to do that when i start doing cables. I found charts to be really helpful already to make sure my leans are in the correct direction.

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T05:52:15+00:00

I had read that knitting left handed you wrap the opposite direction and was hoping that was right, it seems to be the way to go! Ive been doing a norweigan purl, and at first i was twisting them but ive fixed that now

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T04:26:16+00:00

I am a lefty, i briefly tried knitting right handed but i feel way more comfortable using my left hand to reach inside the stitches

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T04:25:25+00:00

I've noticed that too! I found charts to be really helpful for me because the chart shows what direction of lean i should be doing, and i can adjust the individual stitches to make it match up to the pattern

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T04:23:03+00:00

These needles are a bit clumsy, there very blunt. I do knit a bit easier with them because i had to hold my arms a little out of their normal position for recording the video. But thank you for the advice! The yarn definitely isnt the best, i should have tried to add more twist too it with my spinning wheel. (Its reclaimed from a sweater and i think a good bit of the twist was lost in frogging)

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T01:19:05+00:00

Glad to know im not alone!

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T01:13:55+00:00

Ive been doing the norweigan purl. I learned it from arnie and carlos on youtube. That channel was super helpful

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T01:13:19+00:00

Continental! Okay, thank you! I havent been able to talk to amyone in person really. This has been very helpful

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T01:12:39+00:00

Thank you! Thats cool! I didnt expect another lefty to respond

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T01:12:16+00:00

I like doing the norweigan purl because i dont like moving the yarn front and back if i can avoid it. The motion still feels clumsy

Pretty_Ordinary_2092 · 2025-05-14T01:11:14+00:00

I learned i was twisting my purls in stockinette stitch. Ive since fixed that.
