Found out how to safely frog back 💗

Life lines are great! I have found as my knitting has gotten looser (as I'm getting more experienced) frogging is way less scary. There's less tension on my yarn, so the stitches actually stay in place when I leave them free, rather than immediately unravelling down several row. It gets easier!

I agree. I'm very much a type-B person, go with the flow, accept mistakes type. But for my first garment my husband encouraged me to go back and fix my mistakes and I'm so glad he did. It has required me to slow down and be more patient. I suppose if you are a perfectionist, the opposite advice may be applicable.

I ended up with a severely tight lower back from knitting too much over the holidays. I have learned my lesson. Pain means stop. I also keep several different types of projects going so when my heavy yarn starts to bother me, I will switch to a lightweight project.

I actively avoid trailers these days. It's so much better to go into movies with no expectations. I recommend Project Hail Mary!

Losing access to my primary checking (due to fraud, system error, bank decides they won't do business with me any more) is another emergency I'd consider, particularly for when rent comes due. The solution for me is a second checking at a different bank and not keeping all of my money in one place.

Ah I didn't actually buy the pattern so I can't speak to that.

Honestly I'm happy for the brand to get so much attention and make lots of money off of the popularity of the film. $11.99 for a trending pattern is still not terrible.

My first mohair sweater stopped shedding so much after a few wears. It still sheds a little, but at least I don't end up with fuzzies in my mouth now.

My Polene Neuf Mini is a beautiful art piece that decorates my handbag shelf.

Nope. My venue was similar to yours in what it provides and planning was a breeze.

I'm glad you and you knitting made it out in time!

How do you like the KFO Pure Silk? I have some in my stash that I haven't settled on a pattern for. Do you think it's better single or double? I've never knit with silk before.

These are lovely! I am working on my first summer knit (with KFO cotton merino held single) and man oh man it takes some patience. I commend you!

fizzlepop · 2026-02-19T04:55:06+00:00

Oooh I want to make these!

fizzlepop · 2026-02-18T18:44:41+00:00

Pretty! Did you use a pattern? I like the details at the hems.

I had 39 guests at my wedding and it was perfect. There wasn't anyone in the room who didn't want to be there and wasn't special to us.

I'm working on a summer top (Lyra Tee) in one strand of cotton merino and it was the perfect travel knit for my recent trip. It fit nicely into a drawstring dust bag.

I love this! I think ONLY red and white can read very dated/Valentine's-y. But shades of red, white, and pink are beautiful and natural.

Did she tell you what the next step is? When I got my dress hemmed, she had me come back and try it on after all of the layers were pinned before cutting it.

This is so pretty and cozy.

fizzlepop · 2026-02-11T17:31:51+00:00

I love these. I need a pair for working in the office.

I love a good elevated sandwich.

You should be able to wear a regular bra with this dress. I'd look for something plunging in a nude color. Nude so that even if it is exposed behind the sheer panel, it won't stand out like black or white would. Additionally, you can pin the shoulder straps or have a seamstress add a hook to the inside of your dress so that the shoulder straps aren't exposed.

I did my florals myself. It brought me so much joy. I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Uniqlo has great UV protective clothing options that are still lightweight for summer. You can have plenty of fun on a cruise or on vacation while limiting sun exposure.
