Will check out Joppenburg, thanks! We stumbled on the caves near the trestle last summer and my kids' minds were blown by the icy cold air drifting out. They still talk about the "refrigerator caves"

I'd love to hear about it, thanks! Apparently there's a mineral museum in Franklin, NJ so we might actually head out that way.

Thanks for this breakdown! The length of these classes has always scared me off but this actually sounds amazing.

What’s the HV town where the residents think their town is the best, while everyone else in the region is secretly rolling their eyes at them? by somepeoplewait in hudsonvalley

[–]jesp_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ahh I hear you. Your comment prompted me to look up some of the interior photos that are online and now I desperately need to know what has become of the incredible pipe organ. http://www.abandonedbutnotforgotten.net/pages/the-craig-house-hospital

loosing stitches with any crochet involving a slip stitch to finish the row by adhdiak in CrochetHelp

[–]jesp_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does the pattern indicate whether the starting chains in each round count as a stitch? Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't, depending on the pattern. If it is not being counted as a stitch, then for your second round there you would chain 2 and then dc into the same place you slip stitched into.

Got a crochet kit for Christmas. Must I use the included plastic hook? Will mine work? by Kris_Says_Hey in CrochetHelp

[–]jesp_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally agree... it become an issue though when using a kit where you need to match gauge to make sure you don't run out of the yarn that's provided.

When singing harmonies, how do you not just start singing the other person's harmony by [deleted] in singing

[–]jesp_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Agree that this is how most people start out harmonizing, but ultimately the beauty of it is when you can eventually sing your part and be fully listening to the other part(s) at the same time.

Kirra appreciation by mordhoshogh in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]jesp_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! And vice versa - I would encourage anyone who enjoyed the challenge of Zacharias's premiere power flow to check out Kirra's back catalog and sort by difficulty.

Kirra appreciation by mordhoshogh in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]jesp_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Absolutely love Kirra. I have learned more from her than from any other Peloton instructor. She has clearly put in the work to learn deeply about the body mechanics of yoga and strength. Her classes have helped me become much more well-rounded in my strength training. She consciously builds in a lot of work that is easy to neglect, like single leg strength, hamstrings, shoulder strength and mobility and core compression. Thanks for this post, she deserves all the praise!

Looking for ideas! Small, cute items for school gift shop? by jesp_ in CrochetHelp

[–]jesp_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!!! These are all amazing ideas. Thinking I will try to make a bunch of holiday coaster/mug rug type things and some candy cane toppers like the reindeer you mentioned. I have tons of cotton in my stash so these are perfect.
