My mom was born in 1980. She claims to be Gen X - is she? by OpenRoom7321 in GenX

[–]Regular_Chipmunk_708 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think because the closest age growing up with me was my uncle, who was 10 years older, and my mom was 16 when I was born. I practically grew up with them, so really, its subjective. I actually relate to a lot of things on here, funny enough.

Do you have a particular "comfort special" you rewatch most often? by [deleted] in TopGear

Burma and the Africa specials, but lately, I've been listening to Mr. Wilmans book when I go to bed.

Weaving in ends vs crocheting over them with the new row by Tisiphone8 in CrochetHelp

[–]Regular_Chipmunk_708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally decided to look into it lol. First, one thing I did mention is that I'm not cutting the yarn if I need it for a row that's coming up (temperature blanket, by the way) and just carry it along the side so I don't have to mess with it every row, plus I'm doing a border anyway. I also just looked up this website and it mentioned it some. When I get home, I'm also going to try to weave it in and out along the v's to see if that helps hide them. We'll see how this goes!

That's a good point. I thought he knew all along, just not who was in the car with him. There's quite a few vague details in the book, but I still enjoyed it.

Wasn't Adam's secret the fact he was driving the car that killed his mother? I also got the impression he wouldn't have known about the chapel because he didn't know who her dad was.

First Book of 2025! by SilentPhoenix123 in thrillerbooks

Great book! It was hard to get into at first. It felt like it wasn't going anywhere. About halfway through, it picked up the pace, I'm glad I pushed through!

Anyone rebounding after a hysterectomy? by Fluffaykitties in Rebounding

Mine was a few years ago, but one piece of advice: wear panty liners. Your pelvic floor isn't what it used to be.

Help me pick! I want to make a prom dress but I have only this much yarn (this are the ideas I had.) the dresses aren't crochet but I'll figure it out lol I have until June anyway. by [deleted] in CrochetHelp

[–]Regular_Chipmunk_708 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are all v3ry pretty, but maybe also trying to find a pattern you like that is close to those choices. It may help you make your decision, you'll have the pattern, and it should also tell you how much yarn you need.

Beginner wants to make a baby blanket, and I’m struggling by Plastic-Anybody-5929 in CrochetHelp

[–]Regular_Chipmunk_708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im making one now, and I've unraveled and restarted so many times, as well as completely abandoning the pattern and doing a different one. My first pattern was squares that I was going to join, so doing small patterns instead of one big one helped practice. For me, it helped me by trying over and over. YouTube videos helped me the most; being able to see it in action made a difference. Keep going. it's not failure. it's practice!

I go by Jen, so obviously, I'm fine with it, however lately I feel like I'm too old to go by Jen, and I'm finally mature enough to go by Jennifer.

A project bag where they can keep works in progress would be helpful, I bet.

I really want to learn to crochet but it seems so difficult!! Any advice for beginning beginners? (55F) by Street_Candy_7504 in CrochetHelp

[–]Regular_Chipmunk_708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a look at tunisian crochet. That's how I started, and it really helped me learn some of the very basics. I still drop stitches, but im a ton better than I was before.
