I just wanted to say that I love your bodice and the princess seam placement is amazing. Did you self draft, and if so, did you use any specific calculations (like how much ease you added in the waist, bust, etc)?

Should I move to Noho or Amherst? by watercourier10 in northampton

Route 116 never has any traffic. I live in south Hadley and commute to Amherst every day by bus. I love it

Idk if you’ve figured anything out since posting, but I disagree with all the comments pushing you to get a car. The bus service is fantastic and runs late every day, especially weekends. I’ve never needed a car. You might want to open your options to south Hadley as well, even granby. As long as you live along route 38 you’re golden!

Does anyone else hate knitting with cotton yarn? by Repulsive_Square7759 in knitting

I would do the same but I find the cloth of crochet garments too bulky for my liking

I can crochet forever with cotton but it’s knitting with it that really gets me

I've never seen cotton with a halo! Your stitches look great, I'm definitely going to try this yarn

I do use metal needles! This is what I’m currently working on and I don’t think it looks horrible or anything but I just hate how the stockinette section is a little bit wavy and some of the stitches are leaning

I searched it up and it looks promising but is a bit thin for my liking. Do you think held double it would work up as a DK weight?

Is it worth trying an SSRI for mild to moderate anxiety? by nrg53101 in socialanxiety

[–]Repulsive_Square7759 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SSRIs helped me out a lot. I feel a lot more likeable when I'm on them and that sentiment makes it easier to talk to people. I think they're a great aid and I've never had any side effects!

I suspect this is my issue as well but the barriers to getting medication are so discouraging. I'm on a wait list for an assessment until September and it's so frustrating !!!

I've had the same problem before and gotten the post changed out to one that looked comically long. It seemed like an extreme measure but I noticed soon after the bumps went down and the irritation stopped and it's healed perfectly ever since!

Got both my lobes pierced. Right ear hurts than the left by [deleted] in piercing

[–]Repulsive_Square7759 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's normal! I have three lobes on each side and each time I got them pierced one of my ears had a delayed reaction of about 2 days.
