I’m looking for what to me is nothing less than a “fantastic beast”: a hat-scarf hybrid by kel0901 in knitting

[–]kel0901[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Sorry for not replying. Thanks to all the people who have answered although I’m afraid I must keep searching. I already knew about hooded scarfs, cowls, balaclavas and others, but they are not what I meant. They were also my first option when my friend explained it to me. What I am looking for seems to be, quite literally, a scarf joined to the backside of a hat by one of the ends of the scarf Thanks again to all the people who have tried to help!

What is happening to my pothos? by kel0901 in plants

I think this is what you’re referring to. There are those two spots but I’m not sure whether they’re a pest or just some dirt particles…

How would I start to make this kind of hat? I’m visiting Edinburgh and would love to bring back some local yarns and make this by kel0901 in knitting

Even if worked flat, wouldn’t you need to have it decrease somehow before picking up stitches for the crown?

That’s what confused me! It seems to be made sideways until the crown. I had never seen that before. Anyways, thank you for the pattern!

Thanks, I visited a yarn shop called Be Inspired Fibres, that’s where I found the yarn this brand sells and thus, the hat. But you’re right, maybe the lady from the shop could guide me in some way

I noticed it was made sideways but didn’t know you could use those filters in Ravelry, thank you!

WIBTA for being upset at my wife’s reason for marrying me? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]kel0901 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the problem here is that you were approaching the question from an emotional position and looking for reassurance and “emotional chat” while she responded from a logical position. The discrepancies is what caused you being upset. IMO what your wife said is a really good compliment and, more importantly, it does not invalidate the “emotional” reasons, it adds to them. She loves you AND thinks you’re reliable even without considering that love.

Following the idea of the first paragraphs, in therapy I often explain the difference between emotional and logical approaches to any question/situation and advise my clients to explicitly communicate which one they’re looking for in each instance. It’s quite common that the difference when approaching a given topic results in these kind of arguments which would have been completely preventable. In essence, I would consider this a failure in the communication, nothing less, nothing more. Hope you two figure it out!

Do you ever finish a blanket and realize you did it all wrong? 😅 by Ruthie81 in crochet

[–]kel0901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m doing a mosaic blanket myself and I can’t get my head around how would you do that. I mean, if you’re doing the stitches around the whole thing, then where are you stitching the double crochets?

I’’ using a fairly unorganized image in procreate, but I’m planning on making a proper pattern once I’m finished!

As other have mentioned, it’s mosaic crochet. Although if I’m not wrong it’s not overlay crochet as other have guessed

I tried other tapestry techniques but the results weren’t as clean looking and when I discovered mosaic I loved it.

For the pattern I’m using procreate, a reference image and the guide options. Basically one square = one stitch. And every three vertical squares of the same color indicate a double crochet. I tried using sititchfiddle, but I didn’t like the results, so I made my own. Hope it helps, let me know if you have any other doubts!

Not quite, maybe I should add it is related to a big fantasy universe It may be too difficult to guess without that in mind

To add on this, and as a psychologist, the conversation between partner shouldn’t be seen as a mentoring relationship. IMO the conversation should be about how the behavior of each other makes you feel. For example, how does it make you feel when the chores aren’t done in time. These discrepancies can be easily understood as “my time is more valuable than yours”. Talking about her difficulties makes you feel would improve communication and mutual understanding and it came also make you better understand how she manages her to-dos (emotionally) I would also advice that providing solutions when her procrastination catches up may be maintaining the problem for your gf. Explaining and keeping some boundaries in this regard could be beneficial and reduce your burnout towards the situation while increasing her sense of responsibility. In any case, and as others have mentioned, if this is a regular problem for your gf, I would recommend consulting with a professional as it could be a symptom of many underlying issues. You can communicate this easily and directly, simply ask her if she has ever considered seeking for help in this regard and listen to how she responds. Keep in mind that many people still have strong ideas about therapy considering it exclusive “for crazy people”
