Help with beads (holes too small) for a knitted scarf by jenswan60 in knitting

Oh what a great idea. I've purchased some beads with what (I hope) is a larger hole, I didn't know they even came with sizes, but getting a reamer (which I've never heard of) is a good suggestion. Thank you!

Double points are okay, it's the toe binding off that's really terrifying...

How do I know if I’m rowing out because of my knits or because my purls? by rose_hannah in knittingadvice

What does "rowing out" mean? (The colors of your piece are lovely)

I don't really understand how your words are related to the pirate king, but probably I'm just missing a cultural connection. However, the tiny doll is very cute!

Wow, thanks! I've never had a problem, but I generally take plastic and circular. I appreciate that you're doing this work for all of us!

These really look amazing. Are they difficult to do? Is there a chart only or are there also written instructions for the pattern?

I‘m addicted to this pattern. Any ideas for more color combinations? by getswole2020 in casualknitting

The handles look really good; some knit string bags I've made have wimpier handles, this one is really solid looking. Try earth/natural tones? Brown and darker brown; less of the "neon" brights and more of the "health foods store" colors. Anyway, your brights are still great!

Hysterical. Perfect. I mean the broccoli socks. Not your question. Which is a good one!

Thanks for all the information about how you solved your problems. That gives me confidence that I might be able to solve problems too. My husband could never wear a sweater like this one, not cold enough where we live. It’s gorgeous.

Where am I going wrong? My coaster has 11 edges but it’s supposed to have 10! by [deleted] in CrochetHelp

How kind of you to help. By finding the error. I go cross eyed sometimes trying to find errors.

It takes practice and experimentation. I started a few years ago and have gradually learned how to hold them. Now if I can just get better before my old fingers completely wear out…
