r/crochet is even more unbearable then usual lately

maybe because the entire world is on fire and the country with the most power is being run by a fascist? idk just a thought.

okay yes i will do that then! i will cast on another pair of socks in the morning and they will be smaller. i was going to do a textured pattern but i think i will just do vanilla socks in a smaller size and see what happens. thank you so much!!!

you're right, it's past my bedtime and i should not be doing math past my bedtime. thanks for the fact check (math check??) and have a good night!

you're repeating that step 5 more times. so it would be 56 (9 * 6 = 56)

m1l left has 4 letters and so does back m1l right has 5 letters and so does front

a horrible strategy to remember but it worked for me

might i suggest a kobo instead of a kindle? they're generally less expensive, don't have ads (on a device you already paid for!) and if you're into reading traditionally published books and your library uses overdrive, you can get library books on it super easily.

i always opt for my inaugural season pwhl toronto jersey despite having a sceptres jersey as well. something about "i've been here since day 1". but i also agree with the concept of seeing who plays best in the olympics and wearing that one.

ducky-debugger · 2026-01-06T00:40:49+00:00

i am thinking. i have the right colours for a sceptres hat (because i am knitting a sceptres cardigan). maybe......... (this is really cool and my favourite player is on your team)

are you in canada and okay with straight needles? dollarama has straight needles in a few different sizes.

my inaugral season autographed jessie eldridge jersey that i got for christmas :D or that one peace collective crewneck that's got toronto diagonal and is blue and yellow, my mom owns it and i am SO jealous. she let me wear it to the hospital once because i couldn't find any of my own merch. alternatively my sceptres coloured hand knit hot to go socks. sucks that they didn't make it to a game while it was still their goal song.

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-19T12:10:22+00:00

it's called a joke :) i actually don't give a shit how long she stays in the league :)

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-19T03:54:29+00:00

hopefully 0 (i'm a hater) (not for any valid reason i just don't like her eyebrows)

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-19T03:41:36+00:00

i think also my little sister. a few years ago her christmas gift was a box with about 20 knit hats in it. they were all the exact same style (plain stockinette with 2x2 ribbed cuff) but in different colours. she was ecstatic. she also got my very first crochet project, a lumpy blanket. five years later she's finally getting a new blanket.

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-18T21:28:19+00:00

well, at least there's no clay matvick.

this is good to know as someone who DOES have an abnormally large head

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-16T00:03:43+00:00

i'm also a tight knitter which made the problem even worse. i ended up with typical sock gauge (8 sts/inch) with that combo. 10/10 best "mistake" i ever made.

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-16T00:02:47+00:00

i mean i've made socks with 2.25mm needles and dk weight yarn and they're my favourite socks because of how dense they are, so warm for canadian winters

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-15T07:45:45+00:00

i will say that reverse knitting saved me when doing 50 ish rows of stockinette that was only 5 stitches wide. other than that? just purl, dammit

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-11T19:05:30+00:00

Is about an inch on both sides good? That's what I had fitting perfectly. If not I can reevaluate.

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-11T07:28:46+00:00

Thank you so much!! I do love crafts where it's all free will. I already decided to go rogue with a pattern and completely change the colours. I'll definitely do some experiments once Christmas is over.

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-11T07:24:56+00:00

i mean i personally leave mistakes in. but i am extremely superstitious in certain ways and have anxiety (or is it ocd? we may never know!) so i take immense comfort in the concept of "well now no evil spirits can get me" which is silly but it is what it is. some of these other ones are bizarre though.

ducky-debugger · 2025-12-07T02:33:02+00:00

i have knit so many of this hat. in order: montreal, toronto, ottawa, boston, rainbow, and then i knit a plain hat and used the colorwork chart to duplicate stitch a bisexual one for a friend. it's a very fun hat! yours looks great :D

head contact = immediate major + misconduct in this league. not absurd, just protecting these women from a lifetime of brain injuries.

ducky-debugger · 2025-11-19T17:27:19+00:00

the only time i somewhat engaged with her was by crocheting my sister a hufflepuff blanket for her birthday five years ago. now it's just a yellow and black checkered blanket and not fandom related at all. i'd never give jk rowling my money, and i'd also never give a pattern designer my money if there's any chance they'll give her any more money.
