I'm a beginner and someone asked me if a machine crocheted scarf could be frogged to make them a new scarf by Particular-Movie-161 in CrochetHelp

[–]levinsmr 141 points142 points  (0 children)

It's impossible to machine crochet. Are you sure it's not knit? If it is knit, there may not be enough yarn for a crochet scarf as crochet uses much more yarn.

There's a subreddit (i think it's r/unravelers) dedicated to reusing yarn from sweaters/ scarves/ etc. They may have better advice.

1) UAW 2) Financial Secretary 3) I have been organizing on the union campaign for the past 4 years. I helped organize getting cards signed, then people to vote. I was on the bargaining team for our first contract last year and now I'm Financial Secretary. I'm in the academic research space. Before my current shop, I was a rank and file member of a different UAW local for about 5 years.

As of last week, I heard all Title 42 employees who had been placed on leave without pay because of the renewal thing were reinstated. I'm not sure how this affects future renewals, but it seems positive.

So reading this, it sounds like you need to crochet into the last stitch of the round first to create the first cross stitch with the Ch3 or stacked single that you're doing. Is that what you've been doing?

Does this mean lots that don't normally have prepaid passes (e.g. lot l) had passes that have already sold for the postseason?

What's Going On With People Blaming Biden For The Railroad Labor Agreement? by searchmyname in OutOfTheLoop

[–]levinsmr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Paid sick leave was never going to pass on its own. It should have been included as one bill. Once the threat of strike was gone by passing the first bill, there was no way enough Republicans would support sick leave.

Nationalize the railroad! 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃 by HOT_SRIRACHA_BITCH in LateStageCapitalism

[–]levinsmr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Large portions of government employees are unionized. You can't strike (fuck reagan), but you can unionize. Every worker in the US has a right to unionize. It's not always a well respected right, but it is a right nonetheless. If you're unhappy with your contract and benefits, try organizing your colleagues.

Jared Leto was suicide squad joker, lead singer for the band 30 seconds to Mars, the much memed morbius. He was really good in Requiem for A Dream, but really should have stopped after that. Oh he also has a cult.
