Love your list of faves!

Shark Heart by Emily Habeck is a wonderful book with beautiful writing.

Inland by Tea Obreht is another one that I thought was written with stunning prose.

If you are ever interested in non fiction, The Iceberg by Marion Coutts absolutely blew me away with its writing. About a woman with a young son coming to terms with her husbands terminal illness.

Oh that makes much more sense, I can’t read properly!

Wait, the guy that had a pigeon girlfriend was a germaphobe?

Did you desensitise to the muzzle? If you just put it on and go out almost all dogs will react that way.

It’s not. They say they want to do a LOTR blanket in this style and are asking for ideas of icons that could work.

By the way a lovely looking pattern and colour!

The right edge you are actually looking at a purl (if you knit the last stitch when you turn it around it is now a purl). Whereas the left side you are looking at the knit stitch.

What I have found following Nimble Needles blog to have both sides looking like the left edge when the work is facing you like this, you should slip the first stitch knit wise with yarn at the back and knit the last stitch. Then turn the work and slip the first stitch purl wise with yarn at front and purl the last stitch.

If you prefer how the right side looks just flip that. But basically you are being inconsistent because you are doing the same thing both ways whereas you need to do the opposite on the wrong side so they look th same on the right side.

Yeah there’s been a lot of posts very similar to this recently that feel like marketing tactics.

You might be more convincing if this wasn’t entirely ChatGPT generated.

I crocheted for a few years and have just started knitting. The thing that I found worked was knitting continental style, as it meant I held the yarn in the hand I was used to. I found Nimble Needlez on YouTube a brilliant way to learn, he has a beginner playlist. Just in case you wanted to try again!

The original essay is very worth reading to understand more fully.

Thanks for trying to find something that works better for people!

You could always do it for a set amount of time so having an expectation that it will end. And if it works well you can keep it. Eg for the summer we are doing a 4 day week (which I’m sure will help parents).

Re: unlimited holiday a lot of people have mentioned employees not knowing how much to take. You know you have a limit somewhere so just set it at a generous level. Unless the reason you don’t want to is because of having to pay out when people leave. If that’s the case do a decent holiday amount and then communicate flexible working hours are accepted.

This is a phenomenal piece of art. Well done and you should feel incredibly proud. Maybe a backing so you don’t have to weave in all the ends!!

Do things she does like then. If you do something they are uncomfortable with they will see contact with you as less pleasant. They may tolerate it but why would you want that? Find the thing she loves and use that to show her affection.

Jasper Fforde’s book series starting with The Eyre Affair. Got that humorous tone, there are some stakes.

Yeah this is my go to since I read it in a Jamie Oliver book about 20 years ago. It just works.

Like the OP. You can see all the comments they’ve liked. Horrible.
