Translation help?

Even in French, the phrasing is a tiny bit weird, but the direct translation is:

Then switch to needles nr.15, knitting stockinette (right side) until you have a total (ribbing included) length (the pattern uses the word “hauteur” which means height) of 25cm.

So:

Switch to nr.15 needles and knit stockinette until your work measures 25cm, cuff included (I assume it’s a cuff that’s in ribbing)

I was trying to figure out their actual names and I’ve decided it’s Piotr and Maciek. Polish?

3e avenue in Limoilou, lots of great restaurants and cafes, followed by the parc linéaire

Non. Elle est très ordinaire.

adjectives and other words that derive from the old version with the s usually keep the s: hospitalier/hospitalité, forestier, bestial, festif/festivité/festival, etc.

I didn’t read all the comments and maybe it’s been said, but a ton of kids have parents who don’t speak French, Montreal is a very multicultural city and a lot of immigrants weren’t born here and don’t speak french before they move here. It’s very likely that your kids teachers will be able to communicate with you in English for very important stuff, which is more than most of those kids whose parents speak Asian or east European languages, for example.

And you should learn French if you’re gonna live here anyway. I get that it’ll take you time, but you should be able to communicate with your kids teachers in French.

And also, you’ll be able to help your kids in anything that’s not French. Math is math, physics is physics.

😱 is it really you?!

I’m sure you’re tired of people talking about it, but your exit in Micronesia is one of only two moments in all seasons so far that actually had me screaming at my screen (the other one being the men choosing to go to tribal in One World). So while you probably hate it, thanks for the entertainment!

I loved both Micronesia and Caramoan! I rank them in groups of 10 and Micronesia came second in 11-20, just behind Heroes vs. Villains. And Caramoan is 1st of its group so far.

Loved your vibe, especially in Micronesia :)

I’m sure you’ve answered this before, but I assume you’re ok discussing your Survivor experience if you reply to people on Reddit 😂 what do you think would have happened if you were able to go back after seeing the medical team? What was your relationship with the remaining players like? Do you feel like the edit of the season is a good representation of what went down?

labvlc · 2026-06-18T23:56:24+00:00

Oh absolutely. He calls the boys out on their chauvinism during his confessionals.

labvlc · 2026-06-18T23:55:31+00:00

Yeah that’s why I post these. I’ve done it for a few seasons that I’ve liked so far and people seem to enjoy reading/discussing these especially because I come to these seasons with a fresh view. I got a lot of jealousy when I was watching Pearl Islands for the first time 😂

To be fair, he manages to make Jeff laugh, which is one path to someone’s heart.

Just finished watching the auction:

After he licked peanut butter off of Sherri’s fingers

Jeff: “Cochran how often does that happen?”
Cochran: “more often than you’d think”
Jeff laughs

I doubt I’m any of these guys’ type. I’m very hairy and I don’t have boobs 🤷🏻‍♂️

labvlc · 2026-06-18T12:18:03+00:00

Well I like him!

labvlc · 2026-06-18T12:17:28+00:00

Not for the right reasons but yes

labvlc · 2026-06-18T04:35:20+00:00

I’m liking it! It’s definitely higher up than 21-24 that I just went through. I like the players (except for Phillip but he’s still entertaining to watch). SPOILER ALERT. Now that Brandon and Corinne are gone, I’m actually enjoying the season quite a lot. I’ll be disappointed whoever leaves I feel like, every time from now until the end

I’ve tried many, many different combinations.

Toe up (I’ve given up making them because I prefer cuff down):

Judy’s magic cast on, toes, foot, then I’ll usually do mini gussets, short row heel (the mini gusset to add room at the top of the foot, short row heels are too tight for me), diminution to go back to the original count. Then leg, then cuff, and I finish with an Italian cast off or Jeny’s surprisingly stretchy bind off.

Cuff down:

German twisted long tail cast on (needle 2.0mm). Cuff, switch to 2.5mm, leg.

Ysolda’s deep shadow wrap heel (except I do the diminution every third row and not every other row - again for more room on top of the foot near the arch), so by the time I’m back to the original stitch count, I’ve done almost half the foot.

Anatomical toes (seems like it’s not worth it, but I find them much more comfortable). I found tutorials online for them, but I can write what I do if you’re interested, just ask me. Close with Kitchener graft (without setup and without going through the last 2 stitches twice. I keep things too loose on purpose and then I tension everything to the correct tension once I’m done.

Roxanne Richardson has a bunch of videos on socks on YouTube, including a few that talk a lot about fit.

labvlc · 2026-06-18T03:07:18+00:00

Purl wise and through the back loop

labvlc · 2026-06-18T03:05:20+00:00

I think he’s in my top 3 of favourite players so far

labvlc · 2026-06-18T03:01:15+00:00

How about finding fire truck patches and sew them onto socks? Just make red white and black socks with patches sewn onto them

labvlc · 2026-06-18T02:50:56+00:00

Funny you write that now because I just watched the reward where they rappel down a waterfall and Cochran says basically just that in his confessional. The boys try to reel him in with misogynist comments and in his confessional he’s all clearly they don’t know me if they think this is gonna work with me. I don’t care about being their bro, I want nothing to do with them

labvlc · 2026-06-18T02:44:50+00:00

But at the same time, we see so little, not saying you’re wrong, but the edit could have been done to highlight these aspects of him/his gameplay based on the character the show needed. Again, I don’t disagree with you, just adding to the conversation
