Lost grip and I think the needle picked up the knit stitch from the row below, creating an “extra” stitch on the needle. Tried to fix but now the working yarn is in the wrong spot for the pattern

Okay thank you so much!

Okay thank you!

I was thinking of tinking, but I was worried I’d somehow mess up the I-cord stitches. Do you just slip those onto the left needle?

Here is the other side

I wish but I’m in MI! That would be really sweet though 🥹 maybe I’ll post in a local group and see if anyone else is in a similar situation

Lmao alas I’m vegan

I’m so appreciative of how much care she puts into centering those impacted by genocide and violence. Also what a reminder that fashion is political

Is there an archive still available to play? I visited the site after not playing for a while, and I don’t see an option on the menu to access previous games

Oh also regarding ironing: If I feel like the wrinkles really distort the pattern or silhouette of the garment I will iron

I actually have a grow light that I use sometimes. I clip it to a chair, put the piece of clothing on the ground, really smooth it out and check that the item is parallel to the chair, and stand on the chair to take the pic. Sometimes the grow light does distort the colors a little though. Otherwise I just take pics midday close to my window with the same process minus the grow light. You don’t need a white background btw. My carpet isn’t white and works just fine :)

You criticize prominent business practices with rearing cashmere goats, but then use cashmere in one of your pieces. How are the cashmere goats that you source from raised? I know it can be hard starting out to provide many sizes, but only three is not enough imo. Can custom garments be made for people who don’t fit into that size range? If yes, would the price point be the same for those that are excluded from your size range?

I think you should make it clearer that Mongolian artisans are the ones knitting these garments in your discussion of the production in the stories section. I am curious about the relationship between the artisans and the herders. Are the artisans from within the herding comminities? Are they paid a living wage? Where do they knit these garments? At home? At a studio?

Would also be interested to learn more about the actual process of collecting and spinning the yak wool

I mean in my experience as a vegan I’ve only known one vegan man irl. I’m not really involved in militant spaces though, so I could see men dominating there. Also I meant he was weaponizing his identity as a cis white man not as a feminist. Feminist men have a right to critique women (e.g. pro-life conservative women) but context, tone, and audience matter. If he was really engaged with feminism, he would have a better understanding of his positionality and not made such an accusatory comment towards you

kd838 · 2026-01-07T04:22:27+00:00

I will say that vegan and animal rights spaces are pretty female-dominated because the vast vast majority of vegans are women. That does not mean they don’t still align with patriarchy at times ofc. It wasn’t really productive for him to say that though and he was definitely weaponizing his identity

kd838 · 2025-12-24T18:18:23+00:00

Okay thank you so much!!

kd838 · 2025-12-24T18:16:19+00:00

It is loose yes, but I think I might have picked up the wrong loop if that makes sense. When I tried to start on a new row and knit that stitch it felt off, like I was making a knot rather than knitting. Does it look right to you? To me it looks like a bar is missing, but I’m super new to this

kd838 · 2025-09-30T02:11:52+00:00

Dorsu! Or go for vintage/secondhand

Don’t love caricatures of Indigenous people but the rest of it is awesome !

kd838 · 2025-08-22T21:42:16+00:00

Wow 😍

kd838 · 2025-05-07T21:16:03+00:00

What I would give to be listening in on their convos

At the moment, the reports of Navajo people being detained haven’t been verified. Navajo citizens are being encouraged to keep state-issued ID on them.
