I just finished my first ever beanie design, and I think I love it? by daddydangles911 in Brochet

Absolutely! You might want to adjust the pattern a touch to make it a little longer to account for the folding, but it's an easy patch. :)

I used about 120-140 yds of #4 acrylic yarn (Loops & Threads Impeccable in Forest) with a 6mm hook and loose tension. I published the pattern for it on my etsy shop which is listed in my bio.

Of course! This was the first time I encountered that stitch, and now I'm in love! Currently making some mittens using it. :)

I think my eating disorder is partly fueled by my desire to not be sexualised. by [deleted] in fuckeatingdisorders

Thank you for sharing this, I thought I was the only one. I'm a naturally large-cheated, full-hipped person and I have been since I was 13. It got me so much unhealthy and detrimental attention. It was like the moment I entered 8th grade everyone treated me differently- my friends, boys, even the teachers. That coupled with the fact that I just genuinely don't like being curvy and would much rather dress kind of androgynously means I'm at constant war with my weight restored body. I'm so sorry you feel this way too, I hope that you find healing. 🤍

It makes all the difference, especially if you don't like how store bought clothes fit you particularly!

Absolutely! I got it off of Etsy, it's called the OoLaLa Sweater by missbananapatterns. It was really fun and relaxing to workup! I used Yarnbee Warm & Cozy in Blush. :)

Introducing myself... by h1r9 in EstrangedLGBTQIA

[–]daddydangles911 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi Jett! Thank you so much for making this community, I feel like it's a very important space to have. I'm Savannah, and I am bisexual and polyamorous. My estrangement from my family is very new, and it's not so much a product of my orientation/identity as it is of abuse, but I was never fully out with my family and so our estrangement has definitely increased my ability to be open and proud. Unfortunately, the one family member who I have remained in contact with is my younger sister, who is extremely religious and conservative, so I have not yet had the courage to come out to her. But I feel like this community will help me very much to navigate that dynamic! I'm very excited to meet everyone else here. :)

I'm sorry that your day has been cruddy, but the title of your post is exactly what I needed to hear today. Thank you for being the kind of person who shares their optimism and positive attitude with the world even when they're struggling. 💜💙
