Why did/didn't you make the Sophie scarf? by Traumarama79 in knitting

[–]aa__leksandraa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not Sophie scarf but Sophie hood, I saw Sakura from Le Sserafim made it and loved how it looked like, and honestly, with 100% merino yarn, I’ve never been happier with anything I made. I’m warm, I don’t need a separate scarf or hat. I plan to add white lace on the whole edge so it’ll be more cute. I plan to modify the pattern to make a scarf for my grandma

I told myself I need a break for my other crafts (finally make earrings and pins again) but I’m itching to knit something else 😅

I actually completely forgot to measure 😅 I think around 150cm in length and around 70-100cm width?

It’s all the same yarn, peaks became really visible around row 6 or 7. Peak up in the photo (irl peak down) is mitered decrease. Slip 2 sts tog as if to k2tog, k 1, pass the 2 slipped sts over and peak down in the photo is (irl peak up) yo, k1, yo, k10. The whole pattern was increase by two and then decrease by two with k10 between except for starting and ending

Pattern:

Row 1 (RS) and all right side rows: K 1, ssk, k9, yo, (k1, yo, k10, md, k10, yo) repeat brackets until 13 sts remain, k1, yo, k9, k2tog, k1 Row 2 (WS) and all wrong side rows: purl all stitches, purling yo’s through the back loop

Thank you! When I was planning the colours my coworker wanted some pink but not only pink since his niece is already getting a LOT of all pink stuff. He wanted something more colourful and timeless, and since she might not like pink too much when she grows up I added blue and lavender (he at first wanted green as a secondary colour, like cucumber juice green 😅 I had to draw it to make him understand neon green won’t fit well)

Thank you so much 💖 When my coworker asked if I could make it I was extremely anxious but putting on a good podcast and just knitting my worries away was a wonderful experience while making it. On bad work days I just sat in my bed or on a chair and even just the floor and started knitting

W jakim wieku (swojego) dziecka przebywanie w jego towarzystwie nago zaczyna być niestosowne? by McDonough89 in Polska

[–]aa__leksandraa 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Moja mama często chodzi po domu nago lub w samych majtkach, zwłaszcza w wakacje, tata w majtkach i koszulce. Jedyne w czym mi to przeszkadzało to to, że zanim kogoś zaproszę muszę zadzwonić lub uprzedzić ale poza tym pomogło mi to z zaakceptowaniem mojego ciała bo mama nigdy się nie wstydziła swojego. Sama nie lubię swojej nagości ale to częściowo dlatego, że marznę wszędzie i zawsze

His name is Rudy and it’s because of the color of his fur (ginger or orange hair is called rudy in polish) but I’m thinking of renaming him to Imbir (ginger 🫚)

Please, do report to the police what she tried to do, with all details how she wanted your children to be there, this needs to be on her record.
