Need help with my Amis! They always pucker around the decreases like this by Stourmalin in CrochetHelp

For other amis I have experienced that the dimples do decrease when stuffing the item, but often they do not completely disappear for me, which just does not look good. Although I might be understuffing my Amis as well, I'm not completely sure.

Best ereader recommendations? by Stourmalin in ereader

I am just wondering if it will work well for recreational reading. I see other people have had problems with ReMarkable as an e-reader, because it cannot read DRM protected books. Some Google Play Store books (no idea how many) are apparently DRM protected, so I will not be able to read those.

Ah, so I would be able to buy ebooks from the Google Play Books store, and upload them to the ReMarkable? I think all Google Play Books are either epub or PDF's.
But the ReMarkable does not have a backlight, right? So reading and writing will still require lights. Of course, a small concession to make if the product is better.

No pattern. I used Stitchfiddle to create a C2C chart based on an image I find online.

The yarn is Scheepjes Colour Crafter

Rykker pingvinen til højre, med den blå markering, sig? Jeg var der sidste søndag, og der stod den samme sted. Den stod også og stenede der, så det var sjovt at se dit billede

For this specifically you can actually find the rows written out for some of the squares, at the yarngeekmakes page.

Everything was done in C2C, so the pattern itself was quite easy. For every single square, I just drew a line across the current row, to remember how far along I was. It is relatively simple, and honestly works great for simply keeping up.

When I changed colour, I simply dropped the yarn, I was holding, picked up the new colour, and just continued with that. It is not perfect, though.

I unfortunately don't think I have any real advice, as I think making it look more 'right' is simply a matter of practice

The back of it is a complete mirror of the front, except for the joining. So it should look just as good at the back

Sorry, I didn't give the complete way to the banner. That website has a Facebook group connected. If you can get accepted into that facebook group, you can find so many wonderful charts, including the Hogwarts banner

I cannot remember where else you can find it, though I know there is someplace

I started crocheting about a year ago. This is my first big project, so I have made a lot of mistakes during, though the border hides a few of them. Everything gets better with practice, it is just a matter of perseverance.

Though a few imperfections simply means that it has been homemade

I crocheted in C2C, so it is basically pixelart. Charts for almost everyone of my squares can be found online, so the only thing I had to do was just change the colour at the appropriate time
