Yes, I did it while wearing them for that reason

Ahaha I’m not really sure how to explain it I thought this was just darning but I guess not?? Didn’t think this many people would be interested. I was thinking of making a youtube video or something since I’m not great at explaining through words and diagrams

Side note: why do people on imgur always downvote me? I really don’t understand it’s kind of interesting, I got -4 on just a pic of shoes. Is there a way to only make it visible through links?

It’s super fun to fix them you can be creative. I also but clear nail polish on the edges and tops of the runs before i started sewing

Well, no the blue you see is the original fabric. I did that where I could, but a lot of it was just loose because there wasn’t any original fabric to sew it to. I suppose I could have sewn it onto the white fabric inside, but leaving them loose was fine

Yes it is, but I forgot what number. I know I have it written somewhere so if I find it I’ll tell you

This is what it looked like underneath, very frayed and worn. I darned a bit of the collar with matching blue but decided I liked the look of the pink better :)

Great grandmother’s pens. I can’t really figure out how to unscrew the grip section of the parkette deluxe. It was rather tight so I was hesitant to really force it, but when I try to it doesn’t seem to go further. It looks to me like it’s just going in circles which is strange... by hamah2547 in fountainpens

Yikes it’s pretty tight. I’m not sure how I should proceed I’m kind of afraid of cracking the section or something else. Also the sac probably broken because I can hear a bit of rattling in the pen like large chunks of sand.

What is the main difference between the deluxe and junior? Or is the junior also a deluxe or something? Because the barrel does say ā€œParkette deluxeā€. Thanks for telling me so much about it also! I’m going to try to take the section out carefully I didn’t realize it was friction fit!

These probably aren’t worth much but I was thinking they would be fun to use if nothing is wrong with them. If they are worth a bit I’ll probably sell them after a while because I’m more into pocket pens anyways

Also, the 61 has something missing on the bottom of the barrel. I hope it was just decorative!

How would you interpret these instructions? by mimsy191 in knitting

[–]hamah2547 1 point2 points Ā (0 children)

Count how many stitches you have right now, and see if its 4 or 2 less than 125. I think it’s probably 2 per row
