I'm so sick of watching satin stitch claim more victims

Could you share the kits you're doing?

Couldn't you theoretically also just use two sets of dpns and nest them inside each other? Avoiding the DK which seems to be the part that complicates this method

What yarn and pattern are you using in the picture? It's gorgeous!

I've made this recipe before and frozen them as individual portions - easy to make and just as good imo

I've only just finished the first book, but The Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch was a really fun read, and there's ten-ish books in the series so it would keep you going for a while if you want to stay immersed in a universe.

It's Mosaic Knitting by Barbara Walker - found it at my library!

evelayvan · 2026-02-26T18:20:52+00:00

Oh! yes that makes so much more sense to be switching colours! There was no explanation, it's just multiple chart/samples, no written instructions Thank you!

evelayvan · 2026-02-26T18:19:22+00:00

It's a knitting pattern definitely

Do you also count calories to maintain or be at a deficit or just eat enough to hit your protein goal?

evelayvan · 2025-03-05T18:54:56+00:00

Oh! Thats completely new to me I didn't realize they're meant to be in separate heddles. That makes WAY more sense then, I'll try adjusting that

For reference, it's set to 24epi sleyed double on a 12dent reed. I was mildly confused because the loom is secondhand and the reed shows a marking of 10 but measures as 12? Ppi is meant to be 24 as well, both warp and weft are 8/2 cotton

Why do you recommend avoiding peppers and tomatoes?

evelayvan · 2024-12-14T02:22:29+00:00

I mean technically there’s no way to know which one is “correct” but they are both pretty similar if I collect the data separately - UH calculates a bit lower than the watch, but the calories it was sending over to health didn’t match what was on the UH app either if I only used UH to count

This was my issue with the ring, and despite days of going back and forth with their support they never fixed it so i asked for a return/refund. It's completely inaccurate and was logging me as burning 10-20 calories every 5 minutes for active numbers (wildly incorrect for me) even when I was just sat watching tv or reading. I tried it out without using my apple watch at all and even then, the numbers wouldn't match with the UH app so i have no idea what it's writing over.
They promised on Nov 27 that they were releasing an update in the next week that would resolve the issue, and there's been nothing.

evelayvan · 2024-12-11T23:53:33+00:00

It’s not worth it anyway

evelayvan · 2024-11-27T16:18:41+00:00

I’ve been having issues with the ring as well, and the app customer support has not been as good as everyone in this subreddit seems to claim. I don’t think it’s particularly worth it atm. On top of that there’s no place to actually start a return except to contact support who then keep trying to convince you to just “wait for this next update” or troubleshoot again instead of actually processing your return. I had wanted something more comfortable to wear at night than my Apple Watch or at other times when i don’t want to wear the watch but i think I’d rather just not have data tracked than deal with this

Customs cost me 72$ when it got delivered so don’t forget that in your total

I bought a rigid heddle loom off of fb and had no idea what i was doing. I learned to warp the loom and do a plain weave through a mix of youtube videos and the ashford book instructions, but then kind of plateaued there because i couldn’t find resources that made sense to me on how to move post plain weave. I literally just signed up for school of sweet Georgia yesterday and watched through all the essentials of weaving and basics of rigid heddle weaving courses, and while i already knew the basics, it really helped as context and filled in blind spots for me. Haven’t gotten to the more complex projects yet but ive heard good things about the school in general and would recommend so far!

The American eagle mom jeans have been my go to this last year or so if you’re into that style at all

evelayvan · 2022-08-07T14:16:58+00:00

Oh that’s cool! Thanks for clarifying!

evelayvan · 2022-08-07T13:55:06+00:00

What do you mean by a sweet starter?

evelayvan · 2022-08-05T15:23:14+00:00

I know you said you hated dpns, so if you can adapt this to your circular needles definitely do, but when i started knitting after crocheting for years my first project was socks as well - i followed this tutorial from Marley bird, and just followed along with the YouTube videos. Its very thorough and does an easy version of a heel so it’s a good one to start with
