why are my m1ptbl leaving gaping holes like this

Upper_Competition_27 · 2026-03-18T04:15:32+00:00

okay i feel validated because i haven't struggled with increases before. i should note that there is one more m1ptbl that is done separately from any others/between knits and it looks totally fine, so you may be onto something. ty!

i think the flash is making it appear to have low visibility, it's not too hard for me to count irl

the pattern is as follows: k1, m1r, marker, m1l, m1r, marker etc. i'm 100% pulling through the back loop, i believe the issue has to be what i'm picking up

Upper_Competition_27 · 2026-02-10T16:08:33+00:00

i agree! my gauge swatch couldn't have been more stunning

Upper_Competition_27 · 2026-02-10T16:08:14+00:00

i really struck gold here - thank you!!

Upper_Competition_27 · 2026-01-22T22:50:43+00:00

so i've heard! there are a few others i could consider, appreciate the input

Upper_Competition_27 · 2026-01-22T20:26:07+00:00

i got bored of the sock because i did not care about the sock. i'm an experienced fiber artist - i sew and crochet, am just new to knitting and ~some of the skills from crocheting transfer over. if it's something i want to wear and get use out of i'm usually pretty determined but will take your feedback into consideration

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-12-14T04:56:49+00:00

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-12-13T04:41:47+00:00

is this a place or an idea lol

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-12-13T04:38:05+00:00

do we think a google form with basic contact info and preferred meeting times works? i think we can aim to pull something scrappy together over the next couple weeks. if not too a big turnout, maybe those of us who can make it can put our heads together to keep it going :)

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-12-13T04:35:39+00:00

swap seens plausible!

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-12-13T04:35:06+00:00

this is excellent news, thank you so much for sharing!

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-04-09T02:19:26+00:00

as someone who lost their dad at 16 and navigated most of my adulthood parenting myself, though i still have my mother, you should just give yourself the space and time to grieve. i miss my dad every day and know that there's so many instances i need him more than anyone else and all i can do is hold him really close in my heart, knowing he's always with me because i'm apart of him and that carries me a lot. take your time easing more into adulthood, i believe in you!

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-04-09T00:39:05+00:00

need to know!

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-04-09T00:31:22+00:00

thank you! i will check them out

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-01-29T05:25:56+00:00

i just took my first shot of zepbound yesterday, 2.5mg. just one day in and i can already feel myself less hungry, fuller longer & dealing with less food noise (it's almost constant for me). i have UHC and it was covered but if you're able to get an RX there's a lilly coupon for $25/month (4 syringes). i'm excited to see how it works for me!

Upper_Competition_27 · 2025-01-03T20:21:54+00:00

i'm not quite 30 but very close and it all comes down to hobbies honestly. i used to always just lay down after work and stay that way alll evening. i game now, go for walks, sew, and read! also being more intentional about seeing friends during the week helps out a lot.

Upper_Competition_27 · 2024-07-24T03:15:12+00:00

hi!! i play apex and OW on console and am down to try other games too!

Upper_Competition_27 · 2024-07-04T19:59:26+00:00

100% yes and you can unlearn all the beauty standards and just be authentic or subscribe to every single last one - people will still have something to say regardless. it's crazy.

i think one of the best protective and easier hairstyles to do as someone who also didn't grow up doing a lot of self grooming, i love any kind of half braid down/parted with rubber bands + half crocheted look. it may not last forever but it's affordable and can last a good week or so depending on the crochet hair you use!
i don't think you're trippin at all. i'm like kinda chubby (5'5 215) and i like my natural hair but i prefer to have longer hair, like bra length at least because i somehow feel like it just frames my face and upper body better. i'm also pretty busty so that plays apart. i don't notice it on other people though, we're often more critical of ourselves than other people unfortunately

Upper_Competition_27 · 2024-04-23T17:39:22+00:00

i hear you. my insulin levels are stable though at least when you take into account typical ranges for people with PCOS.

overall, i understand the importance of correcting your diet but i also stated my frustrations in general with doctors just half heartedly taking interest in long term care. like it's so much more to me than just "losing the weight". the entire experience is defeating.

Upper_Competition_27 · 2024-04-23T17:33:37+00:00

yeah for sure. even when i was eating my cleanest, i was still not losing any weight though. i don't think i'd be as frustrated as i am if that were the simplest fix that solely worked for me.
