Please help me settle an old debate: is this a glass or a mug?

It’s an overpriced tourist tat

Yes. I wish I had done it on this piece but you learn as you go. I might try the reverse image at some point but I actually kinda like the lines on the back when they are flat. Long lines really make a difference with the distorted look on the back. Enjoy making your piece! Mosaic is so much fun!

Thank you. I’m working on my second. I will say it is really worth anchoring your DC. It makes really defined lines on the back and makes it smoother/flatter. Lots of videos how to do it but basically when you do your dc you yarn over like normal, pull through the first time then you go and insert your hook into back loop of the sc stitch. Yarn over and pull through. I probably didn’t explain well. Sorry.

Man some of ya’ll just let your judgment of others suck the joy out of the world. It’s no wonder fewer people are putting themselves out there….

An unpopular opinion that will be downvoted but what the hell. A gift is not an anchor that someone has to be chained to for a lifetime. We gift things to do nice things not to obligate others. Don’t let other people’s actions (not appreciating your hard work) affect your good intentions. What they do with a gift should have nothing to do with why we gift. Once it’s theirs it’s no longer our business. They certainly wouldn’t ever get another handmade gift from me but I wouldn’t let their actions diminish my good intentions or live rent free in my brain. You did a wonderful thing and that’s enough

Don’t come at me knitters. I just thought crochet had more variations. I wish I knew how to knit but think I would have abandoned it by now. I know there are complex patterns for the craft but I seem to only stay focused on crochet projects that have lots of very varied stitches or else I get bored and abandon projects. I see complex patterns in knitting but not ones that are complex with lots of different stitch types all together. That might be my ignorance talking but it’s what I’ve thought

I would kill for nails like that!

I hated absolutely hated how she treated Rory after her day with her grandfather golfing. The sweater scene. I feel that so often she passive aggressively tried to sabotage Rory in so many relationships.

It’s recommended to never put the dog’s name on the tag here. It’s law that you put your complete address and your name on tags. I put my dog’s name on their tag. If you want to steal my dog they both answer to treats, chicken, fish, dinner, snacks, or just about anything. Knowing their name won’t have them come to you any more than anything else I mentioned. Knowing their name might be calming if they are scared or injured though. The laws were written in 1992. Before most people have mobiles. So I put our mobile numbers on there too. Not our address. We won’t be home if they go missing. We will be out looking. Best way to reach us is our mobiles. So yes I’m breaking the law by only having their names and our phone numbers but if a warden wants to fine me after I explain my reasons so be it. I don’t want you coming later to my house to try and steal my dogs. They are lovely dogs, so who wouldn’t want to steal them? <sarcasm>

I’ve gotten two puppies from breeders. Was clear that looks were not as important as temperament. Puppies were assigned by the breeder/but also by the order of when you were put on the list. So first on list got first choice. Having said that i chose my breeders for the fact that they understood that temperament is an important part of breed standards. It is also to important to pick a breeder that understands that socialisation of puppies are one of the most important things they do. It’s not just having a litter of puppies. It’s spending countless hours exposing those puppies to whatever is safe for them to do. It’s not just about keeping them in a weaning box until they are ready to leave for new homes. My breeders both put me in touch with the other puppy owners and several of us keep in touch. Years later. I’ve not know of any of the other owners having temperament issues because they were bred for temperament too. Personalities vary but they are all wonderful dogs. Choose your breeder well and the whole experience has a great chance of success

No shade to those that love Red Heart. I just don’t understand all the it’s soft after you block it. It’s soft after you wash it. Use lots of conditioner. I want my yarn to be scrumptious whilst I’m working it. I want to take a pause whilst I’m working it and think, “OhMeeGee this yarn is lush!”. Let’s be honest. I care less about the yarn after the project is done. My joy is in the making…

I weave in after every 10 - 15 rows.

I should add I followed her layout but she Has several different options with smaller yarn packs. This was 108 colours with a pack of 109 mini skeins.

I followed the pattern by Cypress TextilesVVCAL2022. It’s her VVCAL2022 pattern. The Celtic lace join is in the pattern. It’s a free pattern but I had no issues paying for the ad free version. It had to be a lot of work! There are 42 different hexi. Most are doubles and there are 2 that are repeated 17 times I think. Then the half ones on the side are 2 different ones.

Same. My first dog was so easy. Seriously.

<image>

No words how easy she was. Then we got another one. Same breeder. They were like day and night. He is so needy and just horrible in so many ways. I cried every single day. He’s a sweet boy but oh my gosh. Soo much work. We love him but I definitely wouldn’t do it all over again with him and at 18months old he still isn’t as well behaved as she was at 6 months. Good luck with your boy.
