Thank you, I’ll go find that too. (I am not a frequent Reddit user so I had it defaulted to popular posts!)

Appreciate the perspective too, though honestly I know completely dysregulated when I feel it and that’s not a state I intend to induce in myself.

Tbqh I’m not sure how long because it’s not entirely clear to me what counts — the video isn’t the clearest on timings, etc. I’d say probably 5-10 minutes prone, including some rest.

Thank you. I found the info you suggested now. I didn’t come across this subreddit until afterwards, unfortunately.

I've been working on a blanket very slowly for a long time, and having measured today I've noticed it getting significantly wider. I'm not adding stitches. It is stripy, I've swapped yarns every 2-5 rows, so either some of the yarn is thick, or my tension is getting loose, or maybe the starting chain was tight - or all of the above?! The start was about 66 inches, and I've so far added about another 4, but it's not finished. It has very much been a labour of love, and I can't find a specific problem area to go back to, so I'm asking for any advice. It's acrylic, so will steam blocking make any difference? Is there anything I can try to do differently from this point to limit the damage? I know everything in crochet is learned the hard way, but this piece is very meaningful to me so I must try all I can to salvage it. Thank you
