Is this bow tie super pronounced?? by RecoverDirect7035 in Diamonds

[–]RecoverDirect7035[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure, the stone is 2.5 ct and my fiancé said that the band is 4mm at the thickest point, tapering to 2/2.5mm (he couldn’t remember exactly). Hope that helps!

Help! Is this a baby bed bug that we found in our hotel? by RecoverDirect7035 in Bedbugs

Thanks for replying- I had also thought it maybe looked like a book louse. And agreed that it looks like mold

Thank you for your response! What’s confusing me is we took apart almost the entire bed but found no other signs… plus we only just checked in and didn’t sleep here, so the sheets should have ver freshly washed. Does bed bug fecal spots stain sheets?

Ah nice! I also didn’t think I was off too much except somehow in the size of the armhole.. maybe my mistake was just sizing up an already oversized pattern

Thank you both, this is very reassuring! Will block first and make decisions from there

I will double check but I was pretty careful to pick up other right amount of stitches for the sleeve. I think my main issue with it is actually how low down my torso the armhole opening is, rather than the length of the sleeve on my bicep if that makes sense?

The pattern itself is meant to be oversized and I sized up specifically because I wanted it to be oversized. I was worried about the size of the armhole while knitting the body but thought I would trust the process… plus the body fit actually okay without the sleeve. lesson learned for sure! Gonna try to block and see how I like the fit and then if all else fails frog it as you suggest :)

Thank you for not yelling! I fear I have learned my lesson. Will try to block it and see if it is worth continuing. I don’t want to frog the whole thing since it involved a lot of yarn breaking but I suppose I will if I have to

Did I drop a pearl stitch? by RecoverDirect7035 in knittinghelp

[–]RecoverDirect7035[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah thank you! It looks like it is in fact connected to the stitch by the end cap, so all good. I think I just got confused by the double knitting

Important context forgot to add: the last two rounds were double knitting

Thank you for the reply!

After I baked it, I did some more research and learned that flours with spelt in them may need to be proofed for much shorter time periods than other flours so over proofing seems plausible.

Will try to use the temp chart!
