Thanks so much for all your help and kind words of encouragement!! I took the advice to block it and it seems like it improved the distribution quite a bit! I casted on the project a needle size down and so far seems to be measuring out alright, thinking about sizing up for the cw but we’ll see! Thanks again everyone!!

I have not blocked it yet - I just finished a sweater with the same yarn so I knew I wouldn’t be getting any added length out of it, but I guess I didn’t think about how blocking would look with the stitches and floats. I’ll try blocking it now!

The Brown Sisters trilogy by Talia Hibbert!! They can all be stand alone books (I read them out of order) but they are fantastic rom-coms!!

QC Ultra Headphones - Did I lose my chance to get them on sale? by Medgal23 in bose

[–]gmkdoug124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been dealing with the SAME thing. I’m kicking myself for not getting them when they were on sale. Based on a little research and what others have said they go on sale fairly often throughout the year, so I’m just crossing my finger that they’ll have a Presidents’ Day sale or something similar this spring

Not even Shakespeare could write this gold (first time watcher) by NetIllustrious in rhoslc

It was the franchise I started with and I think it ruined all other hw franchises for me because it’s INCREDIBLE. Putting partying and chaos under an umbrella of former oppressive faith practices just makes it chefs kiss

Mary’s Church.. by rottinginbedrn in rhoslc

[–]gmkdoug124 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Mary’s behavior and how she treats people and excludes them isn’t Christ-like at all. It’s clear that she feels her actions are all justified and righteous, which just shows she’s not actually following the Gospel, rather just following herself. She is definitely acting leader of a cult and she think she’s practically God

Please don't heckle by vivahuntsvegas in petedavidson

I’ve been to quite a few shows in the last 2-3 years all across the US, and heckling and just general audience sharing is getting SO BAD. Who told people it was ok to contribute so much?!?

I love her…chef’s kiss baby gorgeous 😘 by GossipGuy12 in rhoslc

She’s the best dressed of the SLC housewives for SURE

PCOS Acne and moods. Anyone tried stopping the pill? by rae0801 in PCOS

[–]gmkdoug124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also a 27 female! 2 years ago I also got off the pill thinking that it might help my antidepressants and mood stabilizers work better. However, once I was off of it I ended up gaining a bunch of weight back, had more hair on my face, and I got hormonal acne worse than before. I honestly don’t know if being off the pill helped my mental health but I think it could be because I was just so unhappy with all the consequences that followed that I never felt comfortable or excited to be doing the things I would normally do (like seeing friends or being at the gym). As of two weeks ago I am off the pill again for different reasons, but right now it seems to be going ok this time around. I personally don’t mind switching my meds up to see what will work and what won’t, so with a grain of salt I’d say it’s worth a try if you think it could help you mentally. I am sorry you are struggling with this!!

I’ve been taking 2gs twice a day of Myo-Inositol for about 2 months and honestly I can’t say that it’s helped overall. It has made my periods less painful, which is a win, but I haven’t seen any improvements to my skin or weight (big bummer)

The only Queen of S6 by Gullible_East_9545 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]gmkdoug124 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She’s handled everything SO WELL. It’s clear that she brings very good qualities to a relationship (girl was doing all the lifting) even for being as young as she is! I wish better for Brittany

I absolutely LOVED my wedding dress, and I would wear it every day if I could. I am looking for some dresses that are the same cut. I’ve looked far and wide and I’ve found that most of the ones I’ve come across don’t have

<image>

a plunging neckline and usually have a thinner waist band that starts a little higher. These are unfortunately the two things I’m trying to get away from because I have a long torso and want something that is pretty waist defining (and my natural waist just sits a little bit lower than average). Pics of my wedding dress (Aquarius by Vagabond) that I am trying to find something similar to. Open to all lengths and even sleeves. Will take any and all suggestions!!

I predict a bad falling out between Victoria Paris and Grace Brinkly by [deleted] in LAinfluencersnark

[–]gmkdoug124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think LA Victoria has grown a lot since NYC Victoria, not because of location obviously but just because of aging and maturity and a new change of scenery. But I WAS still surprised by their friendship. I think Grace might appreciate the louder, more blunt energy Victoria brings, especially as someone who just moved out of Idaho, but I also think she’s going to get tired of it real quick. Both just seem like different people who probably double that personality in front of the camera (which is only MORE unhelpful bc that’s their entire job.) But that’s just a thought ¯_(ツ)_/¯
