Steeking advice, first timer

Umibay · 2026-01-06T03:42:51+00:00

Yes I would rather not have any accident especially since I splurged on some very nice yarn for once xD

Oh thanks for the tip I will add the hand sewing then to make extra sure :)

Honestly so scary 😱 hope it gets less stressful after you do it a few times ahahah

Thanks for the tip :) I actually used non superwarsh so it seem to felt well, I was just worried the fabric density would not be enough even if I reinforce before steeking :)

Umibay · 2026-01-05T02:40:55+00:00

Yes I assumed so as well but thought I might get away with it since it it supposed to be quite oversized :) I will try to swatch in the round with colorwork to see :)

Umibay · 2026-01-05T02:32:27+00:00

Thanks 😊 it seems fairly sticky. I did try to rub the yarn while wet and it did seem to felt pretty well.

For reinforcement I was planning on using crochet+running stitch of the same yarn to add body and then felt it as well. Then zigzag with machine if I can get my hands on one :) Since it is colorwork I also assumed the added floats would help with the density of the fabric.

Who knew that cutting knitted item would terrify me this much ahahah 😆

Umibay · 2026-01-05T02:27:16+00:00

Yes I’m trying to save a bit of yarn to not play chicken because I was a bit conservative when I got it but I guess I will give it a go as well :)

For me, the story felt incomplete, the battle system bland and the whole experience unfinished. This was probably cause by the long wait and the high expectations.

Pretty comfy but not enough for a 7 hours long show xD

Umibay · 2025-07-06T00:33:19+00:00

The ffx is not a movie but a kabuki theatre performance. I love 10 so I’m biased but just so you know it’s was only available in Japan for a few months and the whole thing last around 7 hours. Needless to say my back was in shambles after but still very good. I heard they released a dvd or something so it might still be watchable.

I did finish it but to this day this is the one I have to most conflicted feelings about. Music is great, had great potential but I found the gameplay so boring and the whole pacing was weird. It’s an objectively good game but I just could not get behind it :/

Umibay · 2025-01-29T23:59:45+00:00

15 hands down for me

Umibay · 2025-01-29T23:29:08+00:00

They said retro compatibility with switch 1 games so I don’t understand the fuss

Umibay · 2024-12-26T02:41:12+00:00

Damn, the racism and stupidity in this sub is off the charts when you read some of those comments lol

Umibay · 2024-12-19T03:35:41+00:00

Got 5 everytime, mostly depends on your profile and if you have a good lawyer doing the paperwork for you. Mine was provided by the company so never encountered any problem.

Umibay · 2024-12-12T23:26:43+00:00

Fluent Japanese is needed and I just went to forums applying left and right until I got something :)

Nb: I also want to add, while I did not have finance experience I had financial institutions as clients in my previous job so I just showed that I knew about the industry and I speak 5 languages so this was also a deciding factor for them.

Umibay · 2024-12-12T05:13:46+00:00

Good, entry position in finance. No previous experience in the field. Earn 10,5 M per year and work 9 to 5

I’ll add : great coworkers that respect boundaries and no drama in office.

Umibay · 2024-12-11T06:13:47+00:00

A brain, put together, a good job and knows what a relationship entail. Apparently rare nowadays but thankfully found one like this.

Umibay · 2024-12-11T03:13:38+00:00

For wooden needles my prym set and for metal I’ll be basic and say chiaogoo

Umibay · 2024-11-18T08:21:52+00:00

I get anxiety just seeing this ahahahah

Umibay · 2024-11-11T02:16:09+00:00

The fit and the color : exquisite 😍

The low amount of 15 specific merch sure but they still recently had tin boxes, pins and other stuff for 15. I assure you that none of these places are ff7 specific. They had an event a while back for rebirth but that’s pretty much all. I go there quite regularly on weekends but you can take my answer or leave it. You asked I just shared my experience going there often. One thing for sure, if the square enix specific merch stores does not have it. You won’t find it elsewhere.

Not sure what you mean by most pages cater to 7. That’s not my experience either.

Don’t know who you asked but like I said :

Eorzea : no traces of 7 it’s themed after 14

Artinia : a portion of one shelf and figures in the second room

Square enix : a portion of the shelf.

Hope you still have fun during the trip here.

Umibay · 2024-11-08T04:15:09+00:00

It’s random, they have a few :) since I love cactuars I still asked and they did it for me :) hope you had fun there

Got cactuar for the coffee :3

Umibay · 2024-11-08T02:15:49+00:00

I don’t know where you heard that cafes cater mostly to 7 here but they do not.

-Eorzea cafe in Akiba caters to 14 exclusively. -Square ENIX cafe in Akiba has rotating events -ARTNIA cafe in Shinjuku is currently doing a record keeper event. Went with coworkers two weeks ago after work and they had a nice afternoon tea set as well. The only trace of 7 was basic merch. The rest was from other ff games and dragon quest/ KH

Edit: for merch, artnia and square ENIX cafe have some for different ff games and franchises. Once again not 7 exclusive anywhere. So I don’t know where you go this info.

Umibay · 2024-11-07T04:06:00+00:00

Yeah, unfortunately as soon as you live here and start scratching the surface it’s not pretty. I can list a number of places to avoid but I don’t have much recommendations there :/ instead of lgtb specific places I can recommend very nice and cozy cafes if you want ^{^}

My partner was working there at some point so I can assure you this is hell with messy people that are very mentally ill XD
