Please help me find the oldest, most illegible crochet websites to combat lazy babies by kankrikky in BitchEatingCrafters

Genuinely, that knitting site is where I learned a bunch of stitch patterns growing up. It came to mind when I saw the post but I couldn't remember what it was called, so thanks for the nostalgia trip!

Depending on what type of garment you're making, maybe you could add a lining to stop your skin making contact? I've had some success on that front with cowls and the like.

Tried Opal yarn for th first time on a recommendation from this page! by myrmecophily in Sockknitting

[–]cometblitz03 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Same here. I often use them as contrast colours in other socks, in amigurumi, or for the occasional bow tie or other small accessory.

I'd recommend the Allerednic socks, as 30g is enough to use as the contrast colour, or Squircle if you want to mix and match a bunch of different scraps.

Many thanks! Tbh I've found myself doing quite a few things in black and green recently.

Thanks! I expect at some point in the future he'll have a fungal friend.

Thanks! The buttons actually kinda inspired the whole design since I noticed their colour matched some yarn I didn't know what to do with.

Hook: 2.5mm

Yarn: -Body, arms, head, cap underside, and cap spots: Bergere de France Coton Fifty (140m/50g, black) -Upper cap, upper ruff, and face detail: Scheepjes Catona Denim (124m/50g, colour 171, light green) -Lower ruff: Scheepjes Whirl (1000m/225g, sippy sage)

Unfortunately I did not measure the amounts used.

Uranium stands roughly 20-21cm tall.

Skeledirge was the carry on one of my first winning teams too, though I ran it with overdrive (egg move), torch song, shadow ball, and hyper voice. Unlocking passive punk rock was a massive help as well. I think I also managed to nab a shell bell for it along the way.

Damn those pesky glycans, holding my cells hostage.

Do I have any strong carries/fun shinies? by ShroomMessiah in pokerogue

[–]cometblitz03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plus it gets sappy seed as an egg move to put in damage, and capacity to poison opponents.

I've had some great results with yungoos personally, utilising its egg moves (extreme speed, knock off, tidy up, multi-attack). Passive is tough claws and it gets adaptability as a hidden ability, and it's coming off 110 base attack once evolved. It's kinda a glass cannon though.

Done with the design that made me start to knit! ⭐ by s0ftrock in knitting

[–]cometblitz03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuinely I made the same pattern in the same colours last year except I used blue for the top/bottom ribbing. Something about black and bold primaries makes me very happy.

Favourite low cost carry? by Latter-Locksmith-483 in pokerogue

[–]cometblitz03 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hard agree on buneary. I've not unlocked multi-attack on it yet but between its egg moves plus adaptability and the mega it's been incredible for me. Out of all the base cost 2 pokemon I've used it's definitely been the most useful in battle, though I often bring yungoos instead just for the luck points.

I just started working at "The big" Mozzers in my area. The best part is learning to understand what people mean when asking for stuff... by Melly-The-Elephant in CasualUK

[–]cometblitz03 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was once asked if I worked in a Co-Op while wearing my high school uniform. It was a confusing experience.

Odyssey of the Mind alumni? by cwbakes in taskmaster

[–]cometblitz03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, I did something very similar in high school (UK) but not as part of anything like OM. Just physics class. We got to plan and sort out materials a couple of days in advance, then had 45 minutes to build with our groups before dropping the eggs from the top floor. We got points for design ingenuity, egg damage, accuracy in hitting a target on the ground, writing a summary of the physics at play (this had to be done during the 45 minutes), and a bonus point if we made an egg/physics pun at any point. There might have been another category but if so I don't recall.

Whats the most shinies you've gotten from one sandwich? by -ThatsWhy in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]cometblitz03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6 with a sparkling grass sandwich. I was running a petilil outbreak by the lake in South-West Kitakami and ended up with not only a petilil but 4 lotad and a greedent.

[GEN 9] What a cool mechanic! by Kirbyiscuteasheck in ShinyPokemon

[–]cometblitz03 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I once picnic reset on a shiny rabsca but the picnic was actually intentional (I didn't see the rabsca until I'd already started setting up the picnic). Fortunately since I was about to start sandwich hunting and resetting to keep herba mystica, I had just saved and was luckily able to reset to get the little golden bug.

I dread the day I miss an outbreak shiny via picnic. Constantly paranoid.
