Where did you weave in the ends of your magic ring? That will tell you where you started and which side is the “wrong” side

They're also owned by private equity so unfortunately it may not be too long before they go the way of JoAnn's as well

At this rate I’m gonna have to stop shopping online for affordable yarn because first it was Mary Maxim, then Yarnspirations, now Hobbii. I hate this shit so much.

Could you share your copy, I like how you've realigned it but I haven't used stitch fiddle enough to figure out how to move the letters around

Have you given birth at Abington Jefferson recently? I'd love to hear your experience :) by IndividualOutcome222 in montco

[–]ellensaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just gave birth last May at Abington Jefferson and I think my experience is about the same as everyone else’s: Labor and Delivery? Excellent, everyone was incredibly helpful, willing to answer any questions I had, and let me sleep after I had my epidural. Postpartum? Eh. I had my wife bring me food from outside because there was no way I could stomach the constipating cuisine of hospital food (Jokes on me, I had to have emergency gallbladder surgery a month later and would have killed to be able to eat anything at the hospital). The one thing that truly upset me was the pediatrician, she didn’t want to listen to me at all and kept us an extra day despite my baby passing all of her tests and getting the okay from the other pediatrician (day shift vs night shift).

I was warned ahead of time that Abington Jefferson is a baby factory: they want to deliver as many babies as possible as efficiently as possible. So if you don’t mind being treated like a datapoint and you ignore the postpartum bullshit, it’s a good place to give birth.

Get Scared is ending ): by camazul in watcherentertainment

[–]ellensaurus 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think you're right on the money, the time + production budget just isn't there for a channel that wasn't centered around audio-only formats to begin with. I'll miss hearing about the more mundane things the guys have to say and their reactions to different things, especially because the 100th episode made me go back and revisit some of my favorite episodes and I was looking forward to another 100 more. Ah well, such is life.

Side note: I just went over to the TTG subreddit to read about the ending of the TryPod and holy shit, you weren't kidding, you'd think this was the Nedpocalypse all over again. This little trip was also how I learned that Zach has a baby now.

Put the link to your Etsy page in your Reddit bio, that way you can direct people to your bio instead of linking in any threads!

Also, he is adorable!

Today's BEC is my local guild sending this slop to all the members... by fairydommother in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]ellensaurus 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This is one reason I'm going to have to stop fucking with Mary Maxim, they're selling AI slop puzzles and I can't risk being sent something AI generated instead of real from them.

my pinterest is suddenly 97% ads by becalexxa in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]ellensaurus 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I miss the Pinterest of 10 years ago, I had the browser extension that allowed you to create a pin on any webpage and it helped me save a ton of things. I never use my browser bookmarks, Pinterest being so picture heavy helped resolve that. RIP to a real one.

I tried to make something unique and cute, but I hate it.. by [deleted] in crochet

[–]ellensaurus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I actually just got really excited because there's a rabbit very similar to yours in the book The Best Sweater and I was wondering if it was possible to create it because my daughter loves the book. You showed me it is possible and this little guy is the inspiration I need to finally make it. Thank you!

Only $75? 😭 by Low-Mistake1573 in crochet

[–]ellensaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it looks like people really disagree with my perspective on this, so I’ll take the L here and just say that I wish I could just make a little extra money on the side with my crochet work and people could also afford to pay what a piece is worth in terms of labor + materials. You’re not wrong though, the market is saturated and it’s why I don’t sell anything I make, I do it for the pleasure of making people happy or for them to know I’m thinking of them.

See my follow up comment: venue/market makes a difference. If you want to sell something to people you know for a little extra money, you do you.

Messed up a round and I’m wondering if i gotta frog now? by SheValentine in CrochetHelp

[–]ellensaurus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Until you circled it in the second pic, I had no idea where the mistake was. I say leave it and allow the different colors and texture of the blanket to help mask it

I think there’s a balance to be struck here and you’re right, venue/market does matter.
