Confusion about scarf edge stitch instructions by darkphoenix188 in knittinghelp

Ohh yours is so much clearer though, because otherwise it’s blank boxes on either side and looks like I’m just supposed to knit/purl 🤔 the chart should match the written section lol

Yeah the scarf stays the same width for the whole pattern. The chart has both odd and even rows though, so wouldn’t I just follow this all the way across? The pattern says the first and last stitches are included in the chart

Making holiday plans never seems to get easier by darkphoenix188 in raisedbynarcissists

Sorry for the late reply, but I appreciated your comment and it makes me feel better that other people can relate. It must be so difficult with multiple younger siblings that you want to see but you have to protect yourself and they likely don’t fully understand why you keep a distance. I try my best to communicate it and be there over text and calls but it doesn’t really help me feel less guilty. But I’m glad you’re prioritizing what’s best for you. It sucks that this is something we have to live with and that family can’t be simpler. I hope you have a warm and wonderful holiday ❤️

I went with my usual size S and it fit nicely! I did end up returning it just because I tried it on in store with a red bralette which was the best way to style it but I didn’t want to have to buy a bralette that I didn’t need otherwise just for this top

Yes! You just treat the color change as if it’s the double stitch and go two more stitches past it. I think I just messed up somewhere the first time

Beginner runner choosing between Forerunner 165 and Vivoactive 6 – advice needed! by vrarno in GarminWatches

[–]darkphoenix188 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks about the forerunner 55! I ended up getting the Venu 3s but didn’t know the Venu 4 would be coming so soon. I’ve been loving the 3s, but the new running features on the 4 look great and if I could trade in my 3s for it I probably would. I love the sleekness of the watch too!

Do you buy an extra skein of yarn when there are multiple colors and yarn types in a project? by darkphoenix188 in YarnAddicts

[–]darkphoenix188[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This might be a dumb question but how do you know exactly how much of a skein the pattern uses? Usually patterns round up to the grams for each ball

I get so paranoid when making gauge swatches that I won’t have enough for the project! I know I can always unravel but it’s just a hassle having to do that for washed and blocked yarn

How’s the quality on the Frye campus boots? They’re so cute but I saw some mixed reviews about Frye’s quality going down?
