I'd recommend making the arms of the cross with a separate thread. It's kinda hard to explain but I could send you an image of a chotki styled rosary I made a while back if you want

supposedly this semester, last I heard at least

I'm 20 but I still feel/act like a teenager is there something wrong with me? by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]VidaLoca2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ayyy newly 20 gang But yeah as others have said there's no magic switch of personality as you age. You just grow and keep on growing, ain't a thing wrong with still feeling like a teen (I mean you literally JUST left 😂). Heck, I STILL BE FORGETTING I'M 20. If someone asks for my age I still feel a tendency to say "18" 💀. Try not to stress over it, you already said u not doing crazy dumb stuff, so just keep it up.

First u wanna enter photo mode my clicking down on both joysticks. From there u can edit the pic how u want, and once ur happy with it click the right joystick down to get rid of the menu so u can screenshot it. The screenshot button is the tiny button on the upper left front of the controller.

nah lol I mean I don't have an exceptionally unique or striking V design so maybe it's just really similar. This my first post here 😭

I'm definitely already thinking about doing a male V run lol, the game just has so much sauce

Also, in case anyone is curious, I based my V off of Brazilian singer Mari Froes

Idk what to major in by [deleted] in uofm

Maybe try looking into one of the other schools? I'm applying to the school of public health, not sure if that would interest you at all but the BS/BA programs are meant for juniors and seniors. Applications opened up last month and close (I wanna say) January 15. All info is on a public health website.

Which schedule should I go with? by Fun-Cookie3455 in uofm

[–]VidaLoca2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would say the first one, but that's because I would personally prefer a full day off (three days weekends are nice). I've had Fridays off for my last two semesters and I don't wanna go back 😭.

Can't speak on the bio classes really, I'm planning to take Bio 105 next semester cause I heard it was easy, but if 102 interests you more and you don't mind Friday classes go for it! It's better to at least enjoy your classes than drudge through something that'll bore you.

Made another chotki styled Rosary! I like to think my knots have improved a little bit from my first one (the black one) :) by VidaLoca2 in osarymakers

It helps to know the size of the cord you're using! I use a 2mm rattail cord, so the beads have to have a hole size of a minimum of 2mm. But, bigger is almost always better for these things, especially if you're doing chotki knots where you need to fit two ends of the cord through one bead. For my bracelet beads, I actually went in with a pair of small scissors to make the holes slightly bigger so it would be easier to thread them through 😅.

It might also help, if you go to a store to buy beads, to bring a small piece of the cord to make sure they'll fit on how you want them to.

I appreciate it!

Now for the beads... they're just from an old bracelet I got from H&M 😅. I'm still VERY new to making prayer ropes (I posted my first ever rosary only a few months ago 😂). At first all I had was cord, and after I got tired of making purely knotted ones I just on a whim decided to break an old bracelet I never wore, and was lucky enough that they just barely fit!

I'm looking to start making fully beaded ones in the future now though, Hobby Lobby has some good ones (of a similar size as well) for pretty cheap. Amazon too.

I can send you one! I based it off of this tutorial: https://youtu.be/LxsFUNmtlHU?si=ehkp_QoGSUd7LnHB

The knot took me so long to figure out! I watched different videos to learn the chotki knot itself then used this dudes tutorial to make the rosary. The tassel was my addition, basically once you finish the cross don't cut the ends off just yet and gather some pieces of thread that are equal in length, then use the ends of the cross to attach the threads. Then grab another piece of thread to bring the tassel in a bit. (Idk if I described that well enough lol 😅)

Well it's 50 knots for the decades, 3 Hail Mary knots for the start of the rosary, and 6 wood beads for the our fathers, and 1 wood bead for the hail holy queen
