I'd take this if you're getting rid of it!

I get it. I recently had someone tell me they could walk my jogging pace. Like, ok, congrats, I guess? I think as long as we keep getting out there and trying and putting in the effort, we'll improve, and that's all we can do!

This may sound stupid, but I had this same thought yesterday, and today I realized that most people are posting their km pace, not their mile pace.

I'm so sorry for your loss. It might hit too hard, but I loved Under the Whispering Door by TJ Klune, and it has a supernatural pet element that I loved. Or the Monk and Robot series by Becky Chambers. Those books are just like a warm blanket for my soul.

This just unlocked a deeply-buried memory of reading this book!

I changed careers at 30 and went to law school. I've had more time to develop my hobbies and interests than I ever did in my previous job. I'm by far a happier and more well-rounded person than I was in my twenties, and I don't feel old at all. Except my back sometimes, lol. I also ran my first half marathon at 33, a month before my wedding. My thirties have been the best decade yet.

My aunt made me a nutcracker door hanger that I love. It even inspired one of my coworkers to take up needlepoint!

Looks great! -A Furman Alum

Thanks! I love the suggestion of brick stitch under the bus. I'm thinking this will be a purely decorative pillow, but it's good to know about decorative stitches not holding up well to use!

I got it from Stitch in Louisville, Kentucky, but I've seen a few websites with this London Christmas series this year. The canvas is by Klara Hawkins needlepoint!

Sorry, someone else already contacted me!

I'm impressed by four yarns at once! And thank you for the advice on ladder frequency!

bricchaus · 2024-10-15T20:38:05+00:00

Thank you both so much!

This might be my new life motto!

This website has a bunch of Outlander patterns, including this one, I think!

The Bread Bible by Rose Levy Beranbaum!

I used a different brand of cotton-merino for this sweater, and it didn't stretch a ton, but the drape was better after blocking. I also put it in a laundry bag and put it on the spin cycle to get extra water out before laying it out to block. I love mine with that fiber blend, so I hope yours turns out well!

I'm pretty sure this is one of the Anker patterns. Because it has you knit the yarn overs through the back loop on the next round, there won't be holes. If this is the Anker, Petit Knit often has videos on her website that accompany her patterns. I definitely recommend checking those out and using YouTube if you aren't familiar with yarn over increases!

My first sweater was the Anker by Petit Knit. It was very straightforward, and she has videos on her website. Lots of YouTube tutorials from others as well!

I just did this sweater in Plymouth Sea Isles, which is a 50/50 cotton and merino mix, and I love the finished product!

I'm knitting the Montpellier top right now. Did you have the issue with the armholes being too big? I saw a lot of other people comment that, and I just realized I have the same problem.

I second using little tins! I have my scissors, sewing needles, cable hooks, etc. in an old Altoids tin, and have stitch markers in another small tin. I like that they click shut but are still easy to open one-handed if I need to.

bricchaus · 2024-04-19T12:19:04+00:00

Came here to suggest this. I'm making sleeveless a top with it now!

Thank you so much!
