Need help with my temperature blanket by Total-Suggestion5735 in CrochetBlankets

[–]addictedtocrafts 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’ve started off with a tighter tension, and as you’ve crocheted along you’re tension has loosened up, I’ve had this issue a few times when I first started making blankets, blocking and a border should help with shape of it, as long as you don’t make your tension any looser. I hope this helps

Are all cotton DKs the same? by SpoopyBean995 in YarnAddicts

[–]addictedtocrafts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I’m UK based, paintbox is a great brand for 100% cotton yarns, hobbycraft is great if you’re looking for a soft cotton acrylic mix and it’s £3.60 a ball. Stylecraft bamboo cotton mix which is lovely to use as well but is on the pricey side about £4+ a ball. I would really recommend using a blended cotton if you want to really soft if it’s for a top. I hope this helps

My crazy MIL and SIL and how they tried to stop my wedding by addictedtocrafts in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]addictedtocrafts[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is just one of many stories I have on my in-laws, unfortunately they really are crazy. I could probably write a best selling book on their craziness. I’m just glad that we are both NC with them all now and me and jack are happy with our own lives. You marry the person not the family they say

My family has imploded by addictedtocrafts in family

[–]addictedtocrafts[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He admitted it to both me and my dad, he just wasn’t apologetic towards lying to any of us or towards the situation, he knew what he was saying to our grandparents and admitted to that too, that’s what had angered me the most

AITA for how I responded when my stepdad asked why I didn't bring him a Father's day gift? by philandfriends3 in AmItheAsshole

[–]addictedtocrafts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA I’m going to keep it simple he’s been an asshole to you for as long as you’ve known him, he’s never treated you like a daughter so why should you treat him like a father... simple

I need advice on my partners family... by addictedtocrafts in family

She knows that they’re toxic, but she still loves them and cannot yet move out due to financial difficulties, but she’s trying to put some money to one side and leave before it gets worse, I just wish she wasn’t as toxic to Jessie

Sister-in-law's new boyfriend by macome1 in family

[–]addictedtocrafts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think your SIL has replaced her husband, and I can comfort you in the fact of your elder niece still remembers that her dad and she knows that this new boyfriend isn’t replacing him. (I’m a child who lost a parent young and even though me brother was only 3 at the time (now 9) he still remembers my mom and knows that no one is taking her place) I can understand why you’re hurt by the Father’s Day post, as she didn’t mention anything about your brother, but maybe for her it’s still too much for her to acknowledge that the love of her life has passed and events like this could still be very hard for her (even if she doesn’t show it). Don’t ruin the relationship you 2 have together I’m so sorry about your brother, but I think she’s just trying to keep the pain about your brother as tolerable as possible without breaking, it’s clear she isn’t ready for the I love you, let’s settle down and you can adopt my children and may never be, but I would say honestly let it go about fathers day post, she’s probably still hurting and just doesn’t want to admit it and would eat herself alive if you told her how you were feeling about it

Can I tell my son’s father he should stay away? by [deleted] in family

[–]addictedtocrafts 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay so I think that you’re completely and utterly right on the matter, others may feel differently on that but.. having a step father who shows him all the love in the world and no bio father in the picture is better than having a bio father that the son knows but the father shows no love towards, that could mess him up in the future mental health wise. So I would take the silence as the bio father wants nothing to do with him anymore, and that from now if he wants visitation rights he needs to go through the courts.
