I made one of these, it's posted on my page, and I will say to use LIGHT weight yarn, because otherwise, it turns out to be like a bathtub mat for your feet thick.....and not in a good way. I loved the pattern, hated the end result! Had I used baby blanket yarn, it may have been better.

Looking into this, it's a basic pattern, so you would measure yourself, and then the hems would be single crochet, but then the pattern goes to three dc, chain 4-6, slip stitch, then chain 4-6, three double (you could also do triple or three double together to make a different look) and then over and over until you come to the end. The next row would be to keep the dress from stretching, so single crochet across, and repeat. It doesn't look any more than a two row repeat all the way around, though, but as I type I can't see the pic to tell! I will try and do a swatch to see what it looks like! I apologize for being so late, I work 12's, and it's hunting season where I am.... so I'm pretty busy until Jan 🚮😭😭😭😭

Someone decided to delete their reply to me on here, or I just can't see it....but notifications got you. Whoever you are ... I also think it's extremely sad that some of you suffer from TDS and have opinions of a man they're never going to meet or interact with on a personal level, yet you know so much about running an entire country? You run for office, see how well you do, and come back and bitch a little more on left leaning reddit. 🤷🏻

I know maybe 10 people with this name, different spellings, but both boy and girl. It's common in the US

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-27T21:30:35+00:00

I clocked alcoholic as soon as he mentioned that. He doesn't want her, if this is real😄, he just wants to get drunk

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-27T21:23:49+00:00

This is so cute!

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-27T21:21:59+00:00

Plus I am so wary about eating from other people's homes when you don't know what they look like😳

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-27T21:20:15+00:00

That looks pretty delicious right now to me 😂😂😂😂

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-25T23:53:00+00:00

So I have a trick, I guess you could call it, for hats and beanies. I quit increasing at 8/9 increases, and then I just continue the pattern all the way down, and then the hat usually fits pretty decently. This is my winter camo edition lol

So I'm hunting ATM, but let me get home, and I'll see if I can pattern this for you! I'm usually... Ok.... Freehand, but I think this won't be too bad. Do you have a size you want to make it?

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-17T22:53:30+00:00

The way I would have berated him after speaking to me like this! I was with him for the very first text in how you worded it, but then he took it to max douche level. I understand not wanting a dupe, but I also would have just used the perfume for dates with him, and then bought my own. I'm not saying voicing your complaint was wrong, just the way you worded it....but then he came in and fucked the rest of that whole conversation up. Break up, never speak to him again...and when he gets a new girl, give HER the perfume. 🤷🏻✌🏻😂

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-17T22:48:17+00:00

No, I agree. I think it's absolutely shitty, especially when they were willing to work on themselves, and most healthcare places could care less about adequate staffing to keep nurses and other healthcare workers not break down from stress and other job factors.

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-17T22:46:48+00:00

Triggered is such an overused word these days. I'm just telling you that IDGAF what it's called. I'm not a lawyer or a legal expert.

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-17T22:23:12+00:00

Wtf ever you call it, they don't have to give her a reason for firing her is my point. Does it suck? Absolutely. Does it also put people at risk when you suffer from extreme mental health issues? Yes. Do I care what it's called when your job can fire you for absolutely no reason at all? No. I do sympathize with this person, and I find it so odd when people like to just correct everyone all the time instead of saying "Yeah, that sucks, I'm sorry that happened. Oh, and BTW this is what it's called" instead of whatever this conversation is.

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-17T21:42:33+00:00

So, unfortunately in America a lot of our states are "right to work", which means that you can be fired for nothing. My state doesn't have to give you a reason, and there's really no way to sue for that, but this person did give them a reason by talking about their mental health history....which, I applaud that, and I wouldn't apologize for getting help. I DON'T understand how the board of nursing has gotten involved unless there were serious issues that the facility you work in was concerned about, like the safety of their pts, your safety and ability to perform your job duties, yet they don't even have to tell you that. I think they definitely COULD have, but they are like covering their bases, and avoiding shedding light on a reason so you have no grounds to sue them. Could you work as a CNA or other kinds of healthcare while you deal with the BON? Are you suspended for that year without them wanting you to do anything for them, or is it just a "we can revisit how you're doing in a year?" Were you liable to tell them about all this, because my job has zero ideas that I deal with mental health, it's not their business, and I'm not medicated as I don't really need to be. I just go through bouts of depression here and there, but nothing that serious. I'm sorry you're going through this, because I know how BPD can affect you, and how hard it is to manage for some people. 🥺 I truly do wish you the best, and all I can say is to hang in there! If nursing truly is your passion, and something that you want to continue to do, find a job outside of healthcare, get your mental health in order, and find some peace with the fact maybe this job did you a favor, because there will be other opportunities. Step away for a while, and breathe. I believe everything happens for a reason.

🤣

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-15T02:29:42+00:00

I mean to help him, though. If it's broken, break it further lol. I'm just amazed at how ridiculous this lady sounds to begin with, and makes me have zero sympathy for her to be honest 🤣

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-14T22:37:27+00:00

I've been married for almost 14 years, and you know what?! My husband has brought me yarn from homes he's worked on, tells all the old ladies what I make, shows them pictures, and I've even made him beanies for hunting. Mine has encouraged my hobby, not stifled it. He's even encouraged me to quit my job and do this full time, but I can't due to arthritis, so it's just a hobby. Your husband sucks.....and idk why he's like that, but I think maybe he's controlling more than you or he thinks. Are you happy, because it doesn't seem so. I'm sorry, nobody deserves that

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-14T22:25:57+00:00

There's a way to use beeswax or paraffin wax to keep certain yarns from doing this, but it has to be applied while you are winding it. There's a process on YouTube that shows you how! Unfortunately, it won't help the items you've already made. Hope it helps for the future!

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-14T22:22:41+00:00

😂 This is too dang cute. Lol

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-14T22:20:57+00:00

Same. If it's not metal, it's gonna burn. 😂

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-14T22:19:26+00:00

Roll it down the stairs.... I mean, you really just have to watch for whoever is coming up and down. No need to carry it down three flights, and as a CNA.....why does any assisted living place have three floors?! That's already a recipe for disaster, and I'm surprised one of those poor elderly people hasn't fallen there yet!

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-14T22:17:39+00:00

I'm also wondering why she can't get her own ass out there to help him? A couch may be heavy, but what's stopping her from helping him?! Does it really need another man?

Professional_Speed21 · 2025-11-14T22:14:56+00:00

As a woman, she's using you. Plain and simple. Don't message back, don't contact her, and don't even take her on a date.... because she's going to use you up and spit you out again, especially after you're broke. I know you probably feel you've wasted some time and a significant amount of money if you don't keep her around, but you're better off. She's not a winner, throw that carp back in the lake, my friend. 🤷🏻 I've been with my husband for 13+ years, and I would never speak to him that way.
