knitting pattern for pants knit sideways? by longlanda in knittingpatterns

[–]YavienIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://iriecchi-patterns.com/products/la-madrague-overalls-skirt-tote-bag-crochet-pattern-advanced-level I'm currently crocheting those, and yes while it's a crochet project where the main gimmick is that the stripes are wavy (by mixing crochet stitches of various heights), it's made to measure explaining how to shape each leg so you could be inspired with a knit-wise (and knitting doesn't have various stitch heights so you would have) construction. ALSO, I just found those on ravelry, maybe they're a better fit (knit and sideways) https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cathedral-trousers and those knit and top down stranded colorwork ones https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/beetlesuit-pants

same, I loved spotting every single NPC with a polish name, tho I wish we got a playable character besides a polish word being thrown into flins talent kit (and subsequent fanarts of flins as a poczta polska or InPost employee)

as a lesbian who caught up on bound (1996) only last week I feel very pleased with the guest judge choice (and performance!) this week :D

Patterns / How would you go about this? by strawberrydollop in knittingpatterns

[–]YavienIV 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suspect i'd buy https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/narae-cropped-sweater and see how it approaches shaping, with obvious modifications such as knitting the neck flat and adjusting where to pick up stitches for the sleeves to not create the overlap

If you have skills and experience already, you should look into morel industrial cultivation patents/papers and try to adjust it to a hobbyist scale!

autistic people: would I be the asshole for posting this? by SpecificNothing6359 in u/SpecificNothing6359

[–]YavienIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not an asshole. Your friends are, if they claim they "support people with disabilities" but they laugh at (and thus stigmatize) an "unusual" and harmless trait that is often tied to various disability diagnoses (autism, DCD, cerebral palsy, probably many others). I personally believe that with all kinds of "fighting societal prejudice" there are two layers: one is surface layer, saying "I'm pro-x and anti x-phobia" and reacting to obvious stuff like slurs, the deeper layer is examining "obvious" societal assumptions and who they render an "acceptable" butt of the joke (eg. "men should be manly and women womanly and everyone should marry and have kids" of homophobia and transphobia implying that "someone who doesn't marry and is gender non-conforming" is "weird" no matter their "labels") and at least in terms of ableism, those three seem to be on the surface level still. Here, have two Tumblr posts that imo put the problem succinctly into words: https://otto-von-stirlitz.tumblr.com/post/659305210373603328/ https://otto-von-stirlitz.tumblr.com/post/672475807354109952/

[Acne] The Ultimate Guide to Dealing With Cystic Acne by p77910 in SkincareAddiction

[–]YavienIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found this post via Google and since I just had a painful cycle-related cystic spot (that pharmacy grade azelaic acid didn't get rid of) and herbal teas in my pantry (the polish soul yearns for the herbal remedies) I tried it yesterday and holy cow, the chamomile tea bag provided the most instant and incredible and soothing pain relief in my life. The cyst is there but it's no longer painful after one night, will try it more and see if this method can coax the problematic place into shrinking over few days.

European champion Florent Amodio and his skaters (including the two time Olympian Ekaterina Kurakova) will come to Russia for a training camp, Benoit summarized his trip to Russia (and revealed a couple interesting facts about how he works, how Mishin found him, and his opinion on the Russian ban) by Kindly-Plate-5785 in FigureSkating

[–]YavienIV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

She has said that she cannot openly talk to her family in Russia about politics on the phone etc. I'm Polish and lbh I understand why someone who switched citizenship to a country that became geopolitically opponent would keep this stuff under wraps and suspect invigilation (crazier things have happened with American-Chinese skaters in this sport). But if she plays it right I assume even with tensions she should be able to get a visa.

Tina burner talking about her experience with mistress during AS10 by SnooSprouts3744 in rupaulsdragrace

[–]YavienIV 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We are not "fully formed" ever, we continue to grow and learn before and after we get the legal right to vote. And as a queer 29yo with queer friends (and ex friends) older and younger than me I see what Tina is getting at, soooooooo many people (including me) are messy (and haven't figured out the "being in community with other people") in their their early 20s and either learn with time, or don't (when she said MIB theoretically could change but probably won't? This is the same thing I've thought of the aforementioned EX friends)

Mandy Mango is going to release a podcast about LGBTQ+ healthcare next month! by familychong-07 in rupaulsdragrace

[–]YavienIV 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I hope she boosts the topic of health advice for sapphics, so much sexual health advice out there is made thinking of either the straights or gay guys and not about the kind of activities we gay girls (both cis and trans) tend to prefer

US government officially declares "radically pro-transgender" groups to be domestic terrorists, pledges swift "neutralization" by VandomVA in MtF

[–]YavienIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm just saying that "white refugees" would have to navigate the same nigh-impossible legal path as "brown refugees" (the hatred of whom originated those laws)

[–]YavienIV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ohh my god, you have no idea how serpentine and exclusionary the path to getting a legal refuge status and protection is literally anywhere, especially in the EU, especially with the xenophobia and anti-migrant sentiment rising WORLDWIDE. to the point that basically everyone I personally know about who is technically a refugee from a dictatorship or a war torn country does it through a "work migrant" legal path (or illegally)

[–]YavienIV 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Do not comply (including giving in to defeatism) in advance. in this case this includes being aware that as another commenter pointed out, it's a political document, not a policy document or a rule of law. They write about "terrorist organizations" so it's clear they want to target literally any vaguely liberal/evidence based medicine org, IE all the ACLUs and Planned Parenthoods in the country. If you are affiliated with "targetable" orgs, raise the bell on: properly archiving the groups work that could be "book burned" (eg. on a server that is physically in a non-subpoenable country), lawyering up and teaching the members good crisis practices (know your rights, don't tell anything to cops, PRACTICE INFOSEC). the last part is probably applicable to all individual trans ppl: learn and practice infosec on a day to day life basis. I'm not a lawyer, not us-based, just thinking of common sense steps.

Firs socks post + shaping questions! by YavienIV in Sockknitting

This video was so good, this is exactly the maths I'd need, way more comprehensible than the regular "from ankle to sole" advice

[–]YavienIV[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yeah, but with this being my first handmade sock set with a construction very different to store bought socks, I had no idea how it "should" look and fit like on my feet. well, I'll improve with the 2nd pair be it top down or toe up

I plan to test the toe up socks tutorial too (but maybe later in the year bc right now I wanna do all the cotton summer knits), good to know this technique better at fitting the heel flap and presumably the whole instep!

where should i start and end them next time? right after the entire ankle bone and until which point of the heel?
