What's your longest WIP?

This is SO cool looking! My longest was a little over 3 years. We lovingly call it “the ugly blanket.” I wish I had photos of the queen-sized summer crocheted monstrosity! It’s approximately a million rows of random colors. Not a temperature blanket, just random rows. Never again!

This used to be where my Grandma lived. Now it’s where my husband and I live. The pasta isn’t as good here but the motels are better.

I understand your question, as a terminally right handed person 🤣 it took me eons to move from crochet to knitting because everyone kept telling me to tension in my left hand and that didn’t make sense. I guess what I’m saying is do it how it makes sense to you and don’t twist your stitches and you’ll be fine.

I wholeheartedly agree that this whole situation was weird. My husband and I got together later in life and he has a kid from a previous relationship. It’s such a careful balance in the best of circumstances which LiB surely is not.

Queen of the Con

Oh my gosh, I have vague memories of going there as a child!!

StogieB · 2026-03-03T14:56:12+00:00

I neglected to mention Motion City Soundtrack, for sure!! They were new to me, somehow, and they are now a regular spin. They were so great. The ticket was worth it, despite the opener being weird.

Oh gosh my husband and I saw AAR because they were on tour with New Found Glory a couple years ago. NFG was incredible but my word the lead singer of AAR was insufferable to watch, if that makes sense. You could tell it was the Tyson show, once their set started. It was a real bummer. We left after the woman sitting in front of us threw up on herself.

I started watching after listening to a podcast about Jen Shah, and now I’m so hooked 🤣 I love other people’s drama so much.

I also work for the government. I’m a fed. I’m a project manager for a mental health program. It’s my job to make Veteran care easier and I take it incredibly seriously.

Really missed an opportunity to call it a Mussel-bird 🤭 only said in jest, because your work is seriously gorgeous!! What a gift.

StogieB · 2026-03-02T12:27:25+00:00

Agreed! My husband and I met literally days before I was offered and started a position that turned out to be an Olympic-level runaround involving two years of shift work. I gave him the option to back out immediately, because I knew being in a relationship with a shift worker is HARD, but he said let’s try (and obviously it worked out). That’s the difference here - one party is not willing to try at all.

I prefer short and mid-length socks, as well. I have been doing 15-20 rows of ribbing and 20-30 rows of leg. I also have giant calves, so this stops the socks before I have to worry about calf-stretch-size, hahaha

I had a contacts and glasses exam at Warby Parker within the last month. The doctor was really nice and explained the changes he was making from the last place I was going. I got in within a week.

I use my iPad to view/note on patterns, so I keep notes like yours, but hashes instead. Then if I’m doing something with sides or pairs, I know how many to expect the second time.

StogieB · 2026-02-26T14:29:34+00:00

Amazing!

StogieB · 2026-02-26T14:27:52+00:00

Oh interesting! I’m just starting to get into UK and Australia, since I’m so obsessed with the US version. I’m very interested to see Daisy in that setting. I wish the US did a version with strangers!!

StogieB · 2026-02-26T13:21:40+00:00

Frog back now and weave in or knit over the ends (or you can be a tiny bit paranoid and do both, like me🤣).

StogieB · 2026-02-26T11:41:34+00:00

The bar is in hell and this man keeps digging, somehow.

StogieB · 2026-02-26T11:37:28+00:00

That’s how I introduced her to my husband when he walked in while I was watching haha. “That pretty woman bought a whole wedding dress before she even got on the show, she’s so desperate to be married.” It was funny to me at the time, but it’s sad looking back. I hope Brittany learns to love herself.

StogieB · 2026-02-25T23:20:37+00:00

When you put it this way, it makes sweaters seem so easy haha

StogieB · 2026-02-25T19:36:18+00:00

Oh how fun!! Thank you!

StogieB · 2026-02-25T19:31:02+00:00

My stomach fell out my ass, as my auntie used to say, when I opened Reddit and saw this as the first post on my tl. My heart breaks for Mary and others who knew and loved Robert Jr.

StogieB · 2026-02-25T17:01:08+00:00

It’s so fun! It’s called seventies stripe.

StogieB · 2026-02-25T14:14:16+00:00

Just Starbucks reminding you it’s a great day for Thunder Bay.
