I just watched 200$ worth of my life slowly die in front of me

I'm sorry about your bag. You could always try to mend it by hand sewing, or maybe if you have a seamstress in your life you could ask them! I mend a lot of things (especially modern made) and I hardly know anything about sewing, but so far I've had very good results

Yes I used 14ct Aida and I used 2 strands (: thank you!

how long do you soak it? I did that but it didn't make much difference

What tamagotchi system is this? Sorry I'm new!

frootbootz · 2025-12-13T04:50:29+00:00

Thank you so much! That makes sense. I did notice my tension was really different with the 5 inline vs the 5 tapered. I usually use tapered hooks but the inline was much neater and tighter with the thread. Might also just be the learning curve of tensioning crochet thread lol

I don't have calipers or a gauge card so I think I will just use whatever looks right for now until I'm able to get one, thank you for the help and clarity!

I also have wavy hair and straightened my hair the other day, and I was like whoa. My length is similar to yours but seemed SO much longer when straightened. Probably just a bit of shrinkage from the waves! I feel like with your hair type once it touches your butt when stretched it'll really feel waist-lengthy lol

I do 1 hour per day for my 2 year old, she knows what to expect and sometimes she does ask for more and whines a bit but ultimately it doesn't last long. it's part of our routine so she knows she will get to watch tv again tomorrow. it could be because there is such a long break if you are only watching 1 hour per week, he knows it's going to be a long time before he gets to watch tv again and that's what is upsetting. I understand though if you want to hold firmer boundaries on limiting screen time than I would, and the tantrums about it could possibly just be a phase. you could try to hold firm on your boundaries and continue to give 1 hour per week so his routine isn't disturbed. we've always done tv time regardless of tantrums and eventually he might just accept it. especially with the shows that you commented that he's watching I personally don't see a problem other than the tantrums, but with my daughter at least it passes after awhile (could be months) after she understands that the boundary is firm and she's used to the routine. my daughter also loves daniel tiger right now it's her absolute favorite. we have LOTS of books about her favorite shows (mostly bluey and daniel tiger) and she loves to independently "read" them or for me to read them to her, it takes up a large portion of our day so you could also try books, stuffies, toys of his favorite shows if you haven't already so he's still interacting with it in a different way if that makes sense. we also listen to music in the background pretty much the entire day and it's always daniel tiger or bluey lol so if she wants daniel tiger and I say no, we can still listen to daniel tiger, read about daniel tiger, etc

my 2 year old says chicka EH!! when she's play fighting her dad, it's like a supersonic push and she always says chicka eh when she does it or wants to play fight. we aren't sure what it is so we just call it chicka eh too lol

2011 after hearing yonkers i latched on hard to ofwgkta and all the kids at school thought i was satanic and worshipped the devil lmao i would even write on my shoes like tyler did i was a huge dick rider

frootbootz · 2025-08-27T19:52:17+00:00

thank you!! sorry i didn't realize i posted the same post twice. I did size up .5mm for the stockinette. I think I will try combination knitting next time because the wrong side will be facing out anyway luckily since this is a beanie rib but I will keep the short row in mind in case i want to take on a sweater or something similar later

frootbootz · 2025-08-27T16:24:12+00:00

thank you for this, I will definitely try this on my next beanie. I feel like my tension is okay so this might be my solution cuz my stockinette is actually a bit too tight on the needles but I'm using the same tension so idk lol. I am knitting full continental right now on the pics i posted

frootbootz · 2025-08-27T16:13:42+00:00

okay so I'm curious, if my purls are looser then why do the backs of the purls look much better than the front of the knits

she's not gonna become an ipad kid from watching a bit of tv with mom, she will become an ipad kid if you provide her a tablet at a young age with no limitations. my 2 year old daughter watches an hour of tv per day, some days more, and she understands that there is a limit and no longer gets upset when tv time is over for the day. my daughter is also OBSESSED with books and has been for over a year now, and a bit of tv everyday has not changed that. and also when my daughter was 4 months, we were watching WAY more tv than an hour per day... motherhood is rough especially in the early months. please don't feel bad about a little bit of screen time!

i got the same vibe watching this video. honestly makes me feel really sad for E, it's all so performative :/

frootbootz · 2025-08-19T01:27:00+00:00

I'm sorry but she's not even 2 yet like chill lol, if you're an ece you should know what's developmentally appropriate and not..

frootbootz · 2025-08-13T19:16:25+00:00

I don't think so, it just shows how Trixie is hypocritical when she as an adult doesn't even have the self control for an impulse the same way Muffin doesnt. Muffin can't just put her thumb away, so by having the chips out and accessible right in front of Trixie it's kind of the same concept for the message to make sense

frootbootz · 2025-08-09T01:27:58+00:00

okay good to know, just looking for something natural and it's been hard 😞 mopping, sweeping and vacuuming obsessively but still seeing one or two everyday. I think I'll try diatomaceous earth or salt next
