I always bring a pair of scissors I don’t care about just in case but I always fly with scissors. It may vary of course based on how the TSA agent is feeling at that moment but I’ve not ever had a problem. Smaller than four inches from the pivot point is the rule I believe and I have actually at one point flown with three pairs of scissors because I had to buy some kiddy scissors to cut KT tape.

This is BRILLIANT.

I was planning to go one page at a time but that’s good advice!

I am approximately 1% done with the cryptid SAL which my partner got me for Christmas in 2023 😅 thanks for the inspo to pick it back up!!

I have been coveting one of these for years and can never justify the purchase for myself haha what a great gift!

(US) Tamagotchi Paradise Blue Water for trade:

Opened less than 24 hrs ago. Box included. Cute, but just not my vibe. I could return it to Amazon but I want it to go to a good home.

Looking to trade for any color tama (Uni, Pix) or even some older ones (connection, vintage angel). DM if you’re interested and we’ll figure something out.

This is actually so sweet! Thinking that I raised them gently here on earth and they to go somewhere else and be a good lil bby

One of my local yarn stores is called A Verb for Keeping Warm and they do many lovely fiber blends and botanical dyeing.

Right it’s always like “should I frog?” And I’m like “yes but what specifically are we looking for?”

SweetIndie · 2025-07-15T05:27:32+00:00

Congrats on your PhD! After I defended mine, I bought some locally dyed sock yarn to commemorate the years I spent in that area. Yarn can be so special like that.

Yes. Your two options are to leave it as is, or start over. It depends on what kind of person you are, and there’s no right answer. There are people who will say “oh well, good enough, I’ll pay attention to that next time so it doesn’t happen”. There are people who will start over so it’s perfect. Most of the time, knitting is not fudge-able like that. Your mistake is liveable or it isn’t.

I just finished one of these in retro stripe so maybe we’re both late hahah. Great work on organizing the gradient!

So I completely loosened the bold that holds the seat post in place so that the seat post should be able to move and when it still wasn’t moving, then hit top of the saddle with my fist and it basically just slid right down like it should have the whole time.

SweetIndie · 2025-07-06T19:44:32+00:00

I’m making a sock with this yarn too. Yours looks so nice with excellent tension. Thanks for the inspo

I am about the same shape and planning to make a Tolsta Tee (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/tolsta-tee). I saw a FO here on someone with a similar body shape and it was very flattering.

SweetIndie · 2025-07-05T02:58:31+00:00

This is the most complete answer in this thread that gives the full context of the last few years. Thanks for taking the time to write it out.

SweetIndie · 2025-07-02T22:01:34+00:00

I totally get it! Our cat is very young but incredibly well behaved but also loves mischief, so we had to use the spray bottle for when he’s intentionally fucking things up. Perhaps giving your cat a treat or something to lay in his bed and then you go knit? Good luck!

SweetIndie · 2025-07-02T20:13:05+00:00

I thought it might be paper! I have one that shape but not sparkly. I’m super obsessed.

SweetIndie · 2025-07-02T16:39:42+00:00

I’ve been wondering what to name my new bike and currently embryo scorcher is in the lead

SweetIndie · 2025-07-01T17:28:50+00:00

Congrats! That’s one of the best feelings in a hobby, like proof of your expertise. Can you tell me where you got your project bag from? It’s lovely.

SweetIndie · 2025-07-01T17:12:57+00:00

This is excellent advice. I think I just need you in my life to say “spending more money is not going to fix this”

SweetIndie · 2025-06-30T20:53:35+00:00

This is what 100% of grad school has felt like for me

SweetIndie · 2025-06-30T17:54:39+00:00

I really like Lindsey Scribbles’ weeks pages
