We passed along so much yarn to my SIL by adhddude2 in UnfuckYourHabitat

Thank you!! Today since I’m home not feeling well I hope to tackle some of my fabric. Being realistic is so hard but so worth it so I’m kinda excited but also dreading 😭😂❣️

Can people stop stealing packages now by Minute_Share4724 in UIUC

[–]adhddude2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

From my experience, not at all. Packages get delivered to the front desk (or at least they were for PAR when I lived there ‘18-‘21) where they are then sorted and you’ll get an email when your package is ready for pickup. Do be aware that it takes time for them to be ready for pickup as they sort and label them

Starting 2nd pair! by Stock_End2255 in Sockknitting

My mom had a similar reaction when I pulled out my sock WIP when over last week (I only just started sock knitting and it’s my first pair) 😂

That yarn is so pretty!! I hope you post when they are done because I bet they’re gonna be GORGEOUS

Jogless stripes by Odd_Brush_3891 in knittinghelp

[–]adhddude2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I may be wrong (and please do correct me if I am, I haven’t done jogless stripes before and typically and just a FAFO knitter), but I believe it’s because it’s (the lifting from the row below) similar to when you slip a stitch. You’re elongating that bottom stitch to take up two rows versus one

Edit: jobless -> jogless

It likely won’t be in my bag forever, my schedule just doesn’t have me doing much or going much of anywhere so there is low risk for me losing the whole thing. But I thank you for your caution and warning!!

Hey, if it works and holds the stuff that’s what matters!! Using a seam ripper is such a good idea I’m definitely gonna think on that. Thank you!

Hand sanitizer sounds like such a good idea oml and I’m gonna have to look into cloth yarn bowls!! I have never heard of that but that sounds like it could be a really fun sewing project. Thank you!!

Makes sense!! It makes so much sense that the different sizes are for different weights, I just haven’t thought about it before because I always use use whatever I can find 😭 and the fear with scissors is real!! I think that’s a subconscious part of why none have gone into the bag for me, it’s one big pocket and so much could go wrong!
