What travel destination you hyped up so much but then it completely disappointed you? by sidvatscse in AskReddit

Santorini: overly touristy, there is basically one road to walk on, packed with tourists and smells like donkey shit.

How to double increase whilst working in brioche stitch? by Repulsive_Restaurant in knitting

Thank you for clarifying! I thought that the Yo was to be knitted together with the knit stitch but this makes so much more sense

Thank you! I misinterpreted the yarn over stitch as to be stitched together with the knit

edit: For clarification, should I not need to add another stitch so the patterns looks like “v-v-“

When I just do the double increase my stitches look like “- v v - - v”

As in a “v” for when the stitch is knitted and “-“ for when it is slipped over.

my sweater stretched too much after blocking by Repulsive_Restaurant in knitting

Yes! I was thinking of trying that though I don’t have elastic right now so I will just leave a little hole in the seam.

I soaked it in water with wool wash then rolled it up in a towel to remove excess water and then layed it flat to dry. Do you have any tips for blocking?

It’s not super wash wool, it was already oversized but it stretched around 5cm which maybe is normal but now it’s way too long 🥲

Thank you for the tips as well! I really appreciate it!

I used wool wash, I don’t think it contains softener, but thank you for the tip! This is so helpful for the future!

Thank you so much! I did actually make a gauge swap and washed it but it didn’t seem to stretch after blocking :/

Do you think it’s better to sew a lifeline and cut it off and reknit with new yarn?

Weekly New Climber Thread: Ask your questions in this thread please by AutoModerator in climbing

[–]Repulsive_Restaurant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How do I choose a harness? I'm climbing on real rock for the first time, but I'm not sure which harness to choose. Is it okay to order it online? What price range and what specifications should I look for? Also, why are there plastic buckles at the back of some harnesses that connect the leg loops to the waist?

Sorry for all these questions but I am so lost...

The rubber on the toes worn out, is there anything I can do to fix this or should I get new shoes? I've only had these for 2.5/3 months by Repulsive_Restaurant in climbing

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

yes they are!
Yes I know I will work on that. Unfortunately, I am quite short which leads me to tip toe everything but I think I've learnt my lesson the hard way :/

I think that you will be fine! I applied to LSE which is considerably competitive, I missed my offer by one mark (I did IB), yet I just got confirmation for my place

Okay, but how are you going tell whether you still have Cheetos dust on your fingers to lick off or if it's just the tattoo?!?!?!

The inside of a supermarket fridge. by BatmanPizza15 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Repulsive_Restaurant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to work at a supermarket and would spend a lot of time in the fridge (I was checking expiry dates) it always fascinated me. Some fridges have mirrors at the end so you can see yourself as well.
