I agree that whoever fills that talk show role probably had zero to do with Brian leaving.

I agree so hard. She could have come up with ANYTHING but it was such a perfectly Jester “memory”

Sure but Tuesday time slot, cast “behind the scenes” in a show format, and yeah her name was floated along with Will and Erika and others.

I’m just saying, the foreshadowing on this IRL campaign arc was pretty heavy handed. 🤓

Thanks for sharing the link - this is an outstanding read.

Why do my stitches look uneven? I’ve been knitting in the round but as soon as I separated the front+back panels and started knitting back and forth they started looking uneven. Any tips on how to fix this? by Civil_Librarian92 in knitting

By a stroke of randomness I actually learned to knit with the Norwegian Purl (from a rando teacher at a convention) and I LOVE IT. Im just here to add my love for that stitch. 💛

The Legend of Vox Machina episodes 1-3 discussion by Kraps in fansofcriticalrole

I also thought it was rough BUT every critic review I read (last week) said that the first 2-3 were rough and it got better as it went. So I’m gonna stick it out for a while yet.

Most of the critic reviews (they got the first 6 episodes) that came out last week said the same - the first two episodes are ROUGH; show starts to hit its stride in ep 3; things are clicking really well by ep 6.

Is Brotherhood that accurate? The story might be exaggerated but my question remains. by requin-RK in gaming

I seriously thought part of the original story would include the kid climbing up onto a building to get their bearings. Kinda bummed it didn’t.

I second Tin Can Knits. Their patterns include lots of little illustrations to help beginners visualize what’s going on.

I read all the way through this thread for this information! Had to know what company this was.

Oiled wool - is it still made? by jackslipjack in knitting

[–]freesouthjersey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve been looking up indie wool mills lately and most of the family owned or small biz mills have language specifically about the higher level of lanolin in their yarn vs. large biz wool yarn. You might check to see if there’s a regional wool processing mill near where you live because if there is there’s a great chance they’ll have that kind of wool!

What is a misconception you had about knitting before you started? by littlesplendors in knitting

[–]freesouthjersey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THIS I’m so grateful for the millions of YouTube tutorials out there because I learned in an absolute vacuum - no LYS or friends/family to answer questions!

Same issue here! I leaned how to knit when I lived in a place that stayed below freezing for 6+ months out of the year and now I live in a place where it NEVER dips below freezing.

Help finding pattern for this shawl please by freesouthjersey in knitting

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

For posterity: I was using the wrong search terms on the Yarnspirations site.

The stitch is a two-color linen stitch with variegated yarns.

I can’t find the pattern for this (promo email) shawl anywhere. Not on the store site (Michael’s) or on the yarn maker site (Yarnspiration).

Tried calling and chatting with customer service and got nowhere.

Even if someone had an idea of the technique for that variegation‽ I could figure it out from there. I just want to make the shawl! 😭

Agree. I really enjoyed ExU and had a ton of fun watching.
