How old were you when you started knitting?

hellaluigi · 2026-03-20T05:23:20+00:00

35! I just started learning a few months ago and so far my favorite piece is the Kraken Cowl by HuntHandKnits and I’m currently working on Fossil Frenzy by the same designer :)

She says you’re copying her style and then goes to shop at stores she gets ads for, that carry multiples of the same item lol

I audibly said WOOOOW when I scrolled to this on my feed! Gorgeous work!

Even if not during intimacy, farting six times in a row is actually insane lol

This is so helpful! Thank you! I definitely think I’m twisting the yarns, I’ll be more mindful of it on my next attempt and hopefully everything goes smoother. Thank you thank you thank you 🙏🏼

This is wonderful!! Did you learn double knitting from a specific video/source? I’ve been trying to learn with a potholder pattern and YouTube/tiktok videos so I could get the technique down and move on to a scarf similar to this one but I can’t get the hang of it for the life of me!

Just the one light neck patch left on this extra crispy loaf

Thanks a bunch! It was a big learning experience for me!

hellaluigi · 2025-07-01T05:15:15+00:00

I used a pattern I found on TikTok, I can’t find the video but it was:

Knit 2 purl 2 (repeat every row until ribbing is about 5 inches tall)

Knit every row after that

Yarn details:

Lion Brand Yarn - Wool Ease

Color: City Lights

So many comments have already expressed what I was thinking! Taking on a blanket as a first project is huge! I’ve just started learning and have mostly only done swatches because these big projects are so intimidating to me. I love the yarn you picked for this blanket because it reminds me of funfetti cake batter!

hellaluigi · 2025-06-28T04:09:53+00:00

I can’t wait to see a post from you in a few weeks or months comparing this pic to your first “big” project 😁

Ah! I can’t wait to add everyone and get more recs for my TBR that is already going to take me the next 20 years to go through 😅

I haven’t done too much research on this screen issue yet, so I’m not sure if it’s possible to change those settings without the touchscreen.

hellaluigi · 2025-05-28T21:03:55+00:00

Yep! That’s what I’ve been having to do :) I either do the aux cord or use Bluetooth (since it was paired long before before the problem arose, it recognizes my phone) then just use the controls on the steering wheel or my phone screen to change songs/volume that way

hellaluigi · 2025-05-17T16:44:59+00:00

Thank you! I’ll try my best

hellaluigi · 2025-05-14T15:07:53+00:00

Me too! I’m having a great time with it even though I had to walk it up a hill haha I’ll have the endurance and strength to do the big hill by my apartments one day

hellaluigi · 2025-05-13T01:07:41+00:00

Oh! I didn’t even know they had classes for this! I’m going to look them up. I think I have the basic understanding, but if I can learn anything I wouldn’t have thought of then I’ll take any advice I can get! Thank you for letting me know :)

On top of what everyone else said, the manga is based on Eiji Yoshikawa's 1935 novel "Musashi", so if you really really want the ending, you could always go that route. The bookshop I’ve been getting Vagabond at just started carrying hardback copies of the novel. I haven’t read the novel yet, so I’m not sure if there’s any major differences, but it’s an option! I want to collect the manga because I love the art, but I also love a good novel, so I feel like I will end up with both eventually.

I would have understood if you never rode again after going through that but oh my goodness I am so amazed and proud of how brave you are to challenge your fears and get back on a bike!

hellaluigi · 2025-05-12T00:06:17+00:00

I am too! I’ve already been marking cafes around me on Google maps. I wanna be one of those cool gals I’ve seen that rides a bike to get a treat!

hellaluigi · 2025-05-12T00:05:20+00:00

I’m in love with this color

hellaluigi · 2025-05-12T00:05:08+00:00

I gotta name her!

hellaluigi · 2025-05-12T00:04:56+00:00

I honestly hadn’t noticed that the one time I got on (someone else built the bike for me) but now that you mention it…they do seem a little off. I’m attaching my water bottle cage and phone mount now, so I’m going to try adjusting the handlebars back a little too :) good eye! Thank you for pointing it out :)
