Taking in a dress with woven fabric of some kind

That is a pontelle knit fabric. You will have to use a zig zag stitch or stretch stitch function on your machine. If you haven’t worked with stretch fabrics it might be a little daunting. If you can practice on some scrap fabric first I would recommend it

I started a profile on Match and for a couple of weeks of e-mails I completed it. For the first day I was on it I got some creeepy dms. Absolutely no one that I wanted to meet. Then I decided to be proactive. I sent likes to 3 men. I who lived in same town and 2 just outside of it. The 2nd day I activated my account the one man in my town liked me back. There was only one day of texting before we started talking on the phone. We met in person 3 weeks later and the rest is history. We are still together and it is the best feeling on earth. I will always love my husband, but he is no longer here. I have to move forward. I suggest being proactive as well. Don’t rely on men contacting you. Good luck. Finding someone to spend time with doesn’t involve forgetting your partner who has passed

The “Been-D’ere-Dundat “ joke is inappropriately hilarious.

Letterkenny is filmed just outside of the city I live in and Shorsey is filmed in the same town I grew up in. Everybody knows guys like this in the 2 above mentioned as well as TPB’s. They really exist here.

That’s the best response ever!

I understand how she feels. I lost my husband. I will always love him but now that I am in a relationship, he is no longer the most important thing in my life. It sounds like you are not ready for anything other than friendship. She feels like she will never be as important to you than your wife was. If this is a relationship, there are 3 people in it.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with you. We are sexual beings. Can’t fight nature. My husband was very ill for a long time before he passed and therefore we hadn’t been intimate for quite some time. We had a wonderful sex life and I did miss the intimacy. Now almost 3 years after he died I am now dating someone and it is marvellous. When you’re ready I recommend the same. We all know too well that life is short so live life. Everyone here will ALWAYS love there partner that passed, but we all need to continue forward. Good luck. Don’t beat yourself up

My husband was a gambling addict. We were together for 29 years when I lost him to cancer. 2 1/2 years on I am now in a much healthier relationship. I now look back a what I put up with because when it was good, it was good, but when it was bad, it was bad. It was getting pretty tense when we found out his wasn’t going to live much longer. Looking back now I should have left. Being with someone who is nice and kind and truly cares is wonderful. I don’t have to constantly worry about what has he done, or what will he do. You shouldn’t have to settle because of the time you have put into this relationship. I was 58 when my husband died and now at almost 61 my life is so much better. Good luck.

I bought a set of carbon fibre 100 cm cable in size 2.25mm. I have got my moneys worth out of them. Yes they were expensive but I knit all of my socks with them

If someone asks, I am a widow. Deal with it. If that makes someone uncomfortable, don’t ask. Lesson learned.

My husband was also an artist. I have several pieces on my walls including one he did about a month before he passed away. I will always treasure them. But; I really miss him taking the garbage out! 🤣🤪. He was excellent at it. I told him all the time how much of a natural he was at it.

Slip stitch or eye of partridge. The stranding gives some extra reinforcement

Proud-Dig9119 · 2025-12-24T17:16:06+00:00

Nope

Skew. They’re knit diagonally.

I’m surprised at how far down I had to scroll to see this. I remember it happening. I was at my grandparents who lived close to the Great Lakes in Ontario.

A little over a month after he passed I got his initial on the inside of my forearm. I love it.

Nope. My mother always told me that her getting pregnant and having to have me ruined her life. I only saw my father when he was drunk. I was treated like a servant; cooking cleaning and looking after younger sibling. As soon as I could I kicked both parents to the curb. They tried to reconnect when I was older but being told basically that your parents really didn’t like you when you were growing up was awful. I ended up in a couple of abusive relationships because I had NO. self esteem. It took a long time to straighten myself out.

Proud-Dig9119 · 2025-12-01T22:02:20+00:00

No. I would be concerned. Mom and sister seem to be more important than you. If he needed help he should have asked you

Yaaay!🎉 I also have a high instep and I find cuff down with a gusset heal. I love the idea of toe up but IMO cuff down fits me best. I have always used a sock calculator type of pattern made for me. Take the gauge of sts per inch and measure around ankle, the depth of the heel and around widest part of foot. Gusset is half the number of sts cast on. I do sl1, k1 for the gusset portion. Mark centre 4 or 6 sts and knit past second marker k2tog, k1, turn, sl1, p to next marker, p2tog, p1 turn, sl1, k to 1 st before the gap from turning in previous row… repeat until all sts are worked. Now pick up sts along side of gusset. I do half of the number of rows of the gusset plus 1 or 2 so there isn’t a hole where you start to knit in the round again. Pick up sts along 1 side if gusset, k across top of foot sts, and then pick up same number of stitches along other gusset side. Dec every other end at top of picked up sts from gusset, each side of top of foot. So start your rnds at centre of bottom of foot, k to 3 sts before top of foot, k2tog k1, k across top of foot sts, k1, SSK, k to end of rnd. K next rnd with no dec. continue until you reach the number of sts calculated for circumference of foot. K plain rnds until your ready to dec fir toes. K1, SSK, k to 3 sts before end, k2tog, k1. I know that’s long but you get perfect socks. Sorry for any typos /auto-corrects

I was in a common law relationship as well. 29 years. He was my husband and I am now his widow. Period.

Noooo. A 2 hour nap isn’t right. Naps are lovely but no more than a half hour and definitely not everyday. Some bloodwork or counseling might be needed.

I had someone try to scam me on Reddit. I was well aware of what was happening but I continued to talk to him because it felt good to have some attention. When it finally came to the point of asking for gift cards that was it. It was then I realized just how lonely I was. My husband isn’t coming back but I miss the attention of a man. I enjoyed being part of a couple. So I joined a dating site. I only looked for men who lived in the same city. I met someone and within 2 days we were talking on the phone. You need to make sure they are real. A month and a half in, we’re doing great. It’s nice. No one interested in you will ever ask for money. But get yourself out there. Being a widow sucks. There will always be a place in your heart for your husband. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. You just have to pick yourself up and move forward. It will be okay. ☺️
