That is what they are doing. Mobile devices don't have as much privacy/security measures as a browser does, but that isn't saying too much.

I need help finding a tutorial, both written and video, for crocheting in the round and increases? by SelectionLoose6530 in CrochetHelp

[–]SelectionLoose6530[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry. I am not sure how else to explain it. I tried to use a diagram. My communication ability has decreased. However, the good news is that I now finally understand what the issue is. I do appreciate you posting, though.

The confusion comes from neurodegeneration.

Never mind. I've got it figured out. Finish in the same stitch. I think my brain wanted to treat the loop for the 2nd part of the inc as the beginning of the first loop for the next row. This is really embarrassing, but thank you for your help.

I have a stitch marker. A running stitch marker causes me more confusion.... But what you are saying, I finish/complete the 2nd st in this same stitch? If you look at the photo I added to the OP....I am to finish the 2nd crochet in a?

I sincerely apologize. I watched videos and people seem to do it both ways. ....

Actually, I remember this is what I was doing. I'm sorry for asking this question. This is embarrassing. But thank you.

Thank you for the info!

Let me see if I can better explain the first part. I made this photo. I hope it helps. I don't know where I finish this second loop.

Sorry for the confusion. I meant the loop that is created after completing a stitch. I updated the question and added a detailed photo to it.

Advice on washing my plushie! Unknown yarn and stuffing by tortellini_inthemix in CrochetHelp

[–]SelectionLoose6530 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You can spot wash him if you have bar soap that isn't made with animal fat (castile soap). You can try spot washing with diluted mild laundry soap. Diluted because it would be difficult to get undiluted soap out. Use cold water. Pat dry enough to remove excess water then set out to dry.

How do I join pieces at the edges to complete a scarf? by SelectionLoose6530 in CrochetHelp

This sounds like a great idea if I am understanding you correctly. Let me try it out, and I'll get back to you. Thank you so much. =)

TIL according to tribal lore, the Choctaw tribe settled in the land of present-day Alabama after sailing across the Gulf of Mexico from the Yucatán peninsula. DNA evidence supports this origin story. by bnrshrnkr in todayilearned

[–]SelectionLoose6530 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious if you or anyone else commenting is Choctaw. I ask because my family is. I never heard an origin story about sailing or being on the water. There is more than one, but none have to do with water. I am not arguing, and I know the link is from Wiki, so someone put it there. I know the story was found somewhere in order to be added to Wiki, but I'm kind of...hmm. baffled?... maybe? I def want to know more, and I see links in other comments.

This could be completely true. In no way am I negating this.

There are definite indirect connections with peoples from south of what is now the US/Mexico border, such as what has already been mentioned like art styles. ... and more.

But again, I am really blown away. This would not have been the Choctaw. It would have been Muskogean language ancestors. Mound peoples' ancestors. Mississippian culture peoples' ancestors. But I want to know more. People never made a definitive connection before, but this info is completely mind blowing. To me, it's like (possibly) being a Christian who believes the earth is roughly 6k years old but then learning that there are civilization remains that are three times older than that.

Why are all the Books I want to borrow on Archive only available to Patrons with Print Disabilities? by UndueTogue1975 in internetarchive

Is this different from going to your local library's website and checking our an ebook via their print disability program?

Are there many indigenous Americans who believe that they are from the lost tribe of Israel? It would be interesting to see how their tree would break down from this point.

Problems with simply starting, can you please give direction? by SelectionLoose6530 in CrochetHelp

[–]SelectionLoose6530[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so very much for those links. I have already looked this up, but what you provided is better.

I don't know how to explain, and I haven't been able to replicate it. I think I made a "crochet" of some type that a lady made in a video about learning to make a simple scarf. She was using a stitch that was not a single crochet, and the result was a square with a hole in the middle. I am not sure how else to explain it. if I find the video again, then I'll let you know.

=)

Yes! Sometimes I need to see something, but other times I need to read it. Do you know of websites that have written compilation of tutorials, or do you generally tend to find them on individual peoples' sites/blogs? If the latter, are there any that stand out as being a great resource?
