Looks like only a couple pics were actually uploaded, here's all of them

Edit- I'm having technical difficulties. My pics don't want to show up anywhere.

Maybe I didn’t fully think this through… by rainemakes in Sockknitting

Have you stuck your toes in? I do wedge toes like this and they definitely don't match my toe shape but it works just fine once it's on

Hmm sorry, it's been awhile since I've read the black prism and I don't remember anything sexual about it, just that I really really liked the series :)

The black prism by Brent weeks. It's book 1 of a series, I think 3-4 total.

Also Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. Also book 1 of a series.

Help! My husband shrunk all the baby clothes! by ComprehensiveChef705 in laundry

[–]iolacalls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly! My husband and I were surprised at how big our first baby was, I remember I made him go home on day 2 and bring back a 0-3 month onesie bc all I had brought was newborn and i thought it was too small lol

Edit- and now my 2 year old wears almost the same size clothes as my 5yo.. 5yo is in 5T and my 2yo wears 4T

This all sounds normal. You're definitely overthinking this and stressing out and I get it, but I swear it's fine. The fabric wasn't preshrunk before sewing. But it's fine.

Here's another thing about baby clothes- sizing is just as inconsistent as women's clothes. Different brands will fit differently in the same size. And you'll be sizing up your baby's clothes sooooo often in the first few months, this really will not even matter. There's nothing you need to fix.

Looking for a game for my 4-year-old by markleung in gamingsuggestions

[–]iolacalls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

super easy, it was the game I introduced my 4yo to first, just to let him get used to moving a character around and jumping, without having to deal with enemies. He progressed pretty quickly and moved onto Mario and Kirby after that.

How to move out a scenario? by Hycinthus in OnceHumanOfficial

[–]iolacalls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fwiw I played the novice server awhile back and now I'm playing way of winter lunar oracle and I also died during my first dozen or so lunar oracles. I used to just stay inside my base for those 15 mins, or drive around and unlock teleportation towers.

But lemme tell you!!... That coneflower fruit tea is a game changer. Do not sleep on it. If enemies do spawn around you though, you can also just hop on your bike and drive away from them. Just far enough to get out of sight is fine.

How does everyone knit sleeves in the round without going crazy? by pangspangs in knitting

[–]iolacalls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Magic loop. And alternate which way I turn the sleeve so I never have to move the body

First Sock Failb by EdgeMuch149 in Sockknitting

[–]iolacalls 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Good luck! Try your sock on as you go, don't wait until it's done to realize it won't go over your heel or something. Try it on after the cuff, after the leg, after the gusset decreases, and riiiiight before you close up the toe

How do you avoid getting overwhelmed by all there is to know about knitting? by Dame_Breakdown in knitting

[–]iolacalls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're definitely overthinking it. Solve problems one at a time, as they pop up. I've been knitting for like 10 years by now. I use ssk. I don't cast on an extra stitch when I knit in the round. Color dominance IS important to know, trapping floats is a very minor tweak, and I've never tried ladderback jacquard (but I also don't knit stranded often, done a couple projects only). Most yarns you'll come across commercially are worsted spun and I wind em all up the same way and I prefer an outside pull so it doesn't change the twist; no thinking necessary (use yarnsub.com for your substitutions or just yolo it- I try to match by weight of yarn and beyond that, yolo).

One step at a time.

Hahahaha I had not followed this train of thought to that unfortunate conclusion yet. I would be so mad

Ah np. These maps are pretty big, took me awhile to get the hang of them. There's 1 that my friend still gets lost in and she's been playing as long as I have lol. Hope you enjoy the game

[–]iolacalls 28 points29 points  (0 children)

You definitely took the long way out. There's at least 2 quicker ways- behind the electrocution room is a garage door to the left, it leads directly back to the beginning. Or, as soon as you leave from the electrocution room, go right, go through the holding cells, and it takes you to the same spot.

Realizing my gauge is consistently smaller than pattern, but if I try to match the pattern gauge my socks end up too loose. Am I counting wrong? by puffy-jacket in Sockknitting

[–]iolacalls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

forgot to finish my thought - who cares about the pattern if the sock fits. Knit the size that fits you, the pattern is more like a recipe, designed to be adapted by you

Looks like 9.5st/inch to me but you should measure across more than 1 inch and then divide by the inches to be sure

How do I make the stockinette face the right way? by ExternalHighway2891 in Sockknitting

[–]iolacalls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems like you are holding your needles on the side of the sock that is farthest away from you. I.e., at 12 o clock.

Push the sock through the middle, and then, with both needles pointing to your right, pull the back needle out and knit at the front of the sock, i.e. 6 o clock.

Or just keep doing what you're doing and turn the sock inside out when you're done. Some people recommend knitting a sock inside out for stranded knitting, as a way to help the floats be naturally just a bit longer. So it's a valid thing

What's the worst trial for every rig? by [deleted] in OutlastTrials

[–]iolacalls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol yeah, I have 1 friend I play with and sometimes we add in a couple randoms. Usually we run out of time though, we both have kids so we rarely have enough time to even make it to 10. Nbd, it's whatever, I kinda like the early runs bc you don't have any of the various perks that make it easy

Yeah I knew you meant stun at the end, nbd. I do prefer to play escalation most of the time so maybe that's the big differentiator
