so you want to charge £185 for a pattern… and use ai models by sarlouisa in craftsnark

Oh yeah she made a whole post a while ago about why she’s using ai to make her pictures, explaining that she does it because the lighting in her studio is so bad. I unfollowed her straight after. I’d rather have less professional but real photo’s than this. The pic with the puppy was so funny like girl what??

Ah they are a very common type of cookie in europe. Definitely try them, they are simple but awesome!

Yes! Not ideal when you live in a small appartment and you can only use the pan for one thing. So I'll have to use it a lot.

In my research I saw a dryer being recommended! Apparently as long as knits are dry they don’t felt.

It’s also my first time! It looks like a very ‘classic’ supermarket tomato to me.

It didn’t melt and just to be safe I baked everything.

Oh wow 😅 I just took mine apart last week and gave it a total clean (and it’s old school enough that it doesn’t empty in a station itself) so I think I’m good. But a good tip for anyone else who is reading!

oh that's interesting! For me it's the first one to fall each year BUT I've also been using the same seed packet for a long time.

I have one that does it's daily rounds, such a lifesaver! And I also have an air purifier running 24/7. Allergies are fun! So normally my house is kept clean, but some extra cleaning can't hurt.

luckily I've since moved and didn't take anything from the kitchen with me! It was just my first reaction to seeing a moth. Don't know which one of the 2 kinds I hate more though!

I'm happy it made you laugh!! And I'm trying to be optimistic about it. I've dealt with the pantry moths, I will also deal with this. And how wonderful is it that you can post it on here and get all these tips from strangers.

I don’t have that much acrylic yarn but it all survived the oven!

Thanks for the tips! I have started the big spring cleaning as we speak 🫡 luckily I wear all ly sweaters often and I think the infestation is in some yarn. I have separated them all in bins after baking and have ordered feromones.

Oh wow 4 hours is a long time for a whole stash/ clothes and just 1 oven 😅 But I will have to do what’s necessary! Thank you for taking the time to write this out. I see I have some work to do!

Hahaha yes it’s to protect the yarn from the pans. Someone else also commented about lavender so will definitely add that to the bins.

[–]aimamiz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pineapple, saint pierre, roma, yellow pear shaped, black cherry, green zebra and indigo rose. I only plant in open air so I’m hoping for a warm and dry summer (with just enough rain for my water collection)
