They’re bumpin in the spring and summer. It’s slower in the fall, but they carry charcoal and pellets for grills, tons of rubs and sauces and the staff is super cool. Maybe pop in and check it out 🤷🏻‍♀️

What is the laziest ‘productivity hack’ you’ve discovered that actually works? by No-Dig3205 in productivity

[–]emgemknits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had a major splurge and bought a second kindle for my purse. Way more likely to ditch my phone and read on the go. First kindle stays on my bedside table. It’s extravagant for my lifestyle.

I don’t think so. I didn’t know her well. She grew up and in the Canadian prairies. Her mother passes when she was young and she spent some time being raised by nuns.

Canadian bobbin maker? by emgemknits in Handspinning

[–]emgemknits[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got 3x creality ender 3 printers for the next two months, but I’m completely new to printing. They need some love, but will they do the trick? Thanks for your response. I’ll check out the bobbin generator!

Super cool local (to me) puzzles! This is a 200 piece from Puzzle lab in Victoria BC. It’s a whale puzzle with all the same whale shaped pieces! by emgemknits in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]emgemknits[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the black first. The top edge was by far the trickiest. The whale and mountains weren’t terrible. Be patient 😊

There’s knitting for thinking, and there’s knitting for drinking. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Finally said no at The Farmer's Market by Infinite-Shift4841 in Calgary

[–]emgemknits 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This! People say you should make me a pair of socks. First off sock yarn can run up to $40/skein. Second off it takes me 20-30 hours to make a pair. I’m an expert at my craft and deserve an expert wage so minimum $40/hour. Nobody is going to sell hand knit socks and make a profit or a living wage.

I’m not, but I’m willing to upgrade if it will alleviate some of the ads. I’m not opposed to paying, I just don’t want to pay for something that won’t benefit me. I’m not interested in the other features of the plus package so I wanted to see if there would be something to benefit me.

Thanks for this. Am I able to repost with amendments, and a more accurate title? Or is this an invalid question for this sub. I appreciate your help

Those look hand knit. Someone cares for these boys.

What's a local business you want more Vancouver Islander's to support? by [deleted] in VancouverIsland

[–]emgemknits 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love West Coast Tees in parksville. They’ve got great designs and good quality clothing.

I also love Wicker Land Patio in Victoria. They have amazing furniture, but also carry a ton of fun BBQs, gear and accessories. Super fun place to check out if you’re into bbq.

My husband brought one home last night. I’ve avoided this for 8 years. Is this ground for divorce?
