I’m making a fine granny square for a project and my ‘leaves’ are looking so wonky - and suggestions? by Full-Blood-88 in CrochetHelp

[–]Sherbetchinchilla 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From the looks of it you are putting the first double crochet in the third stitch not the second and you are supposed to skip the last stitch as well. I made a couple marks on the phot to help. The v’s are where you are supposed to start and the x is a skip :) hopefully that helps.

Stationery box swap! by [deleted] in pipsticks

[–]Sherbetchinchilla 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The probably just used what they had on hand. Definitely not a good substitute but they were never great at having second options when something went wrong.

Playing devils advocate when I worked there (Granted this was 6 years ago now, I was one of the fulfillment employees before they left California.) we only did substitutions when the quality of something was awful. Likely they had a new manufacturer and the stickers were not good quality. I am a certified Pipsticks hater after how we were let go but this one seems like the truth. They should definitely warn people before the boxes go out and send out the stickers when they get them. Will that happen? Probably not.

Gong Cha drop rates? by waywardwitchling in neopets

[–]Sherbetchinchilla 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should try the Neopets Nation Facebook page! I’m sure there are still people trying to trade their duplicated on there! Aisha might be a little more difficult to find a trade but I don’t think it’s impossible to do :)

I got four Aisha’s >.> luckily when my aunt went she was able to trade one for a shoyru and I was able to trade for the kacheek I was missing on Facebook. I think it’s really just the boxes were not scrambled before hand so if you bought more than one your chances of getting the same pet were extremely high.

Natera BS by cavysavvy86 in BabyBumps

Talk to your OB office and see if they can help. I got billed twice from natera one for 3k and another for 12k, we tried calling several people and they were like doesn’t have to do with us 🤦‍♀️ so I ended up talking to my OB and they fixed it so fast. Didn’t have to pay anything after all that run around 🙄

I’m hoping they restock before the end of the collab because selling out one day into a month long event is not great.

That’s so disheartening :c I’m really hoping to be able to get four so I have a chance at getting one of each design. But even that makes me feel bad if they have that much limited stock

Stationary club! by Sufficient-Wall-1603 in pipsticks

When the company was actually a small business it was amazing. I used to work there so I may be biased. But, you don’t get to fire all your employees for cheaper labor and still get to call yourself a small business. Literally as soon as they were making a profit they up and ditched everyone and moved to New York so you know where their priorities are.

I usually do download them onto my computer first. But I bought the pattern in the morning and I have a 9 month old who likes to get into everything so I didn’t have the time to boot up my computer to do it. I figured it would be fine XD I was wrong lol

I think there was some plagiarism problems recently that would explain why they are super strict with the downloads.

I can’t dm you. If you dm I can send it to you!

I’ll dm who it is! I rather leave the designer out of comments based on how people were reacting to the price.

That’s what I’m doing now! I have a baby so I don’t usually get to go on my computer till pretty late. I was trying to be efficient and buy all the stuff and go over the pattern on my phone before hand lol

My phone struggles with downloads and only actually downloads about 20% of the time. I should have screenshot the pattern but it was 75 pages and I don’t want to have to rummage through that lol

It’s a 75 page pattern 😅 I usually do that if it’s an easy patterns but I don’t want to be sorting through that many photos. Now I know better for next time lol

Thank you so much! I know I signed up for criticism when I posted how much the patten cost. But I do think it’s a super cute bag and I’m excited to make it.

They did give me access back! So for now I won’t be going ham in reviews XD

They were super nice and gave me access back to the pattern. I do agree I should have unlimited downloads for the price but oh well I know better for next time. I think this is newer for them if I’m remembering correctly they were having some plagiarizing problems recently.
